High Schools Return to Staggered Schedule After Thanksgiving

High school students in Huntsville City Schools will transition back to a staggered schedule after returning from the Thanksgiving holidays beginning Monday, Nov. 30, 2020.  High school students will remain on the staggered schedule until the winter holidays beginning Wednesday, Dec. 23, 2020. 

District leaders announced the plans during the board meeting on Thursday, Nov. 19, 2020, citing current staffing conditions as well as an increase in COVID-19 transmission rates among high school students as the reasons for returning to the staggered schedule.

The announcement applies to all high school students in HCS who are not enrolled in Huntsville Virtual Academy (HVA). 

Administrators will share plans regarding learning modes for all students during the second semester prior the winter holidays. HCS will inform families of any updates.
