Anyone have any inside info on if schools will open March 31st?


Mar 19, 2020, 11:17 AM

Anyone have any inside info maybe from a teacher or from the school district. On if schools will reopen March 31st? Thanks

No inside info, but I can almost guarantee


Mar 19, 2020, 11:18 AM

that no schools will be reopening that soon. This isn't going to get better than quickly.

My wife is a teacher and we are hearing this will likely go through Spring Break, early April.

I do not, but I would bet the farm that schools will NOT


Mar 19, 2020, 11:20 AM

Are you asking about a specific school district?


Mar 19, 2020, 11:23 AM

I will be surprised if schools open by the end of April, I don't think there's any way March 31 is in play.

Most information I've heard (I have friends who work in different school districts in the upstate, and I work at Winthrop University) is that most places are preparing under the assumption that schools may not re-open until the end of the scheduled school year. If they happen to re-open sooner, then great, but most communication I've seen is preparing for working from home (thus schools being closed) through the end of April (for colleges) and possibly May (for all others).

However, I will also say that schools did not expect the governor to move as swiftly as he did last weekend...and there's nothing saying that kind of swift change cannot happen again, thus changing plans that are in place.

The general belief seems to be that...

the school closings will likely be extended through at least mid-April.

counting on any paychecks the rest of the school year. (contract work so no work - no pay)

My wife is a teacher in Charleston and her principal told her they likely will not resume this year--out through summer, hope to return in August.

I have a relative that works at the primary school my kids go to in laurens county...the school district rep has told them no more mandatory Monday meetings, and to go ahead and plan on no classes for the rest of this school year. So who knows

Schools will remain closed rest of school year. imho.***

All colleges across the state got the call from the governor to move forward with online classes through the end of the semester. That means end of April for most. Clemson and Winthrop have both postponed commencement as well.

Berkeley County initially was supposed to reopen March 31. They now adjusted the date to IIRC, April 14, a date which Charleston County started with.
