FORT MILL, S.C. (WBTV) - Fort Mill Schools will return all middle and high school students to a five-day instructional model on March 15.
The district says the decision comes as COVID-19 cases continue to drop and after recent guidance by the CDC suggests schools do not pose high risk for transmission of COVID-19 when proper safety protocols are in place.
“The district has installed physical safety measures such as desk shields in all schools and we are finalizing protocols to encourage social distancing during high traffic times,” the district says.
