It’s important during these tough times to think about all of the wonderful school days we had together this year!

Virginia’s Gov. Northam’ issued an order, on Mon., March 23, closing the state’s schools for the remainder of the
school year. This extended closure prioritizes the safety of students, staff members and the community during the COVID-19 public health crisis.

Our school superintendents and administrators are working closely with the Virginia Department of Education (VDOE) to formulate a plan for providing virtual learning opportunities for our students, grades K-12, for the remainder of this school year.

In the meantime, our teachers continue to post weekly virtual lessons with review and enrichment opportunities for our students.

HCPS posts changes daily to its COVID-19 website, in particular, the “Commonly Asked Questions” section. Also, see the latest issue of the HCPS Binder.

Mobile Tech Hubs at 4 HCPS high schools are distributing Wi-Fi hot-spot devices  and repairing division-issued laptops for students and staff during the COVID-19 school closure. The hot-spot devices enable home Internet via cellular service and will be available while supplies last.

Staffed by HCPS partner, the Technology Integration Group, the hubs will feature vans with canopies and a large “TIG” logo.

Many students depend on school meals as a crucial part of their daily nutrition. HCPS is addressing this need by distributing school meals to students at sites throughout Henrico County. “Grab and Go” food is distributed in school bus loops.

Students can pick up lunches and breakfasts each school day on a first-come, first-served basis. Food distribution is open to all students–regardless of what school they attend–as well as others under age 18. 

An important note: Adults must be accompanied by each child under 18 who needs a meal. 

Our Patriots will access their school lessons online while HCPS schools close onsite facilities to help contain the COVID-19 Virus.

During the school closure, teachers and administrators will be available via email and virtual resources such as Google Meet, Google Hangout, Zoom, FaceTime, or phone-conferencing.

Beginning on Tues., March 17, our teachers will post virtual learning experiences on Schoology–our county’s online learning platform–launched 5 years ago.

Each subject area will update one lesson per week for students to complete.  If you or your child has questions about the assignments, contact the teacher through a Schoology message or email. Teachers will be check their emails daily throughout the school closing.
