Rutherford County Schools have an important update for you concerning our COVID-19 shutdown. We previously announced that our schools would be closed through spring break at the recommendation of Gov. Bill Lee. However, the governor has issued a new recommendation today, and he has strongly urged schools to remain closed through Friday, April 24. So we are following that recommendation and all Rutherford County schools will remain closed through Friday, April 24. We will keep parents informed with any new updates. Thanks for your patience as our community addresses this situation.

While nothing can replace face-to-face interaction with an educator, access to instructional materials is essential during an extended closure. Beginning the week of April 6, 2020, RCS will offer optional assignments and activities to keep students engaged throughout the COVID-19 shutdown.
