RETURN TO LEARNING: Rock Hill, Chester County students begin school year Tuesday

Another round of students will make their return to learning Tuesday -- it’s the first day of school in Rock Hill as well as in Chester County and both districts are making their return with very similar learning plans.

Channel 9 reported Rock Hill will be taking classes both in-person and online. They are starting out with two days of in-person learning per week and three days of virtual learning.

The district offered a virtual learning academy for families who did not want to send their kids to school.

In Chester County, students and staff will start the school year with students in either the “Hybrid Learning Model” or taking the virtual learning academy full-time.

The first option involves students doing a mix of in-person and digital learning.

The virtual academy was offered to students in all grade levels.
