COVID SAFETY MEASURES IN THE MEIGS COUNTY SCHOOLS
As the pandemic of COVID 19 continues to impact all aspects of society, the Meigs County School system is focused on how to best address these concerns and continue to educate students and keep them safe. We have limited ability, as a school system, to address these health issues compared to the previous school year. Meigs County presently has over 20 percent of our student population out of school due to direct or indirect involvement with Covid-19. We are highly encouraging students to wear masks. We now are implementing a mask mandate for all teachers and staff as we did last year (effective immediately). That mandate is in effect when a teacher or staff is within six feet of another person. It is known that masks reduce the transmission of this virus. If students are wearing masks appropriately during close contact with a positive case, where all parties are masked, the non-positive student will not need to quarantine (unless they have symptoms). Mask wearing means we stay in school.
The mission of United Way is to unite our community’s resources to give everyone the opportunity for a good quality of life, through EDUCATION, STABILITY IN THE FAMILY & GOOD HEALTH. They partner and work closely with over twenty nonprofit organization’s in our community to ensure that we are doing everything we can locally to find long-term solutions to our communities most complex and pressing needs.
This is a short video of Rachel Moore talking about how United Way helped the bus crash victims.

Congratulations!
The Meigs County Schools Foundational Literacy Skills Plan has been approved by TDOE. We would like to thank the Early Literacy committee for their hard work developing this plan for the students of Meigs County. We look forward to supporting our teachers as they implement the components of this plan.
We are so proud to see one of our very own teachers receive the 2021 Golden Apple Teacher of the Year Award!
