GCS Closed Monday and Tuesday

Greenville County Schools will be closed on Monday, September 30, and Tuesday, October 1. With widespread power and Internet outages, eLearning is not possible. Once we have better estimates of when power and Internet will be restored, we will announce plans for Wednesday.

Stable power and safe transportation are the main factors necessary for resuming in-person school. Once power is restored, cafeteria food supplies must be restocked, which will take a minimum of 48 hours. While clearing roads is necessary, transportation cannot be provided safely with so many traffic signals not working. As it is safe to do so, we are physically checking our locations and prioritizing repairs. We currently have at least 90 schools and offices without power and Internet, with inconsistent power at the other locations.
