School districts that have a universal masking policy (“mask mandate”) and are active members of the ABC Science Collaborative can participate in a ‘Test to Stay’ program. Mount Airy City Schools will begin this pilot on Monday, October 18, 2021.

Students and staff must wear a mask while inside the school building. Please make sure students arrive at school with a mask each day. If you need masks for your child, please contact the school's principal.

If you have a child between the ages of 5-11, the Surry County Health and Nutrition Center would like to know your interest level in a COVID-19 vaccine. This is not a form for an appointment or shot, but rather a way to gauge our community's interest. This will help the health department get the appropriate number of vaccines when they become available for this age range.

Our youngest students started the year off strong with no plans of letting up. Check out how educators at BH Tharrington Primary School have been empowering students through the Leader In Me program.

The North Carolina Department of Public Instruction invites parents and guardians to attend a free webinar this month in a series focusing on how to support their child’s learning, no matter the setting and regardless of potential disruptions to learning.
