Shughart Elementary School families:

We are transitioning to remote learning. We want to keep everyone healthy and safe, and our school open to learning. However, our Fort Bragg community has been hit hard by coronavirus omicron variant, and a transition to remote learning will enable us to overcome current staffing challenges and maintain continuity of education for our students.

Shughart Elementary School will be closed to students beginning Friday, January 14. 2022. Teachers will use Friday, January 14 and Tuesday, January 18 to prepare for remote instruction and to send important information to students and parents. We will transition to remote learning Wednesday, January 19.

Remote Learning

We prepared for this type of situation as part of our contingency plans for this school year. We know it’s important to maintain continuity of education for our students. As always, the close cooperation and teamwork of our Shughart Elementary School family will see us through this event.

Details to support this transition:

1. Tuesday, January 18, your child’s teacher will share meeting links and student log in information with your student through the student Google account.
2. To connect to remote instruction, your student may use the following devices: Phone, an iPad, home computer, or video game system.
3. A reminder that Monday is not a school day; enjoy your break for Martin Luther King Jr. Day.
4. Remote learning begins Wednesday, January 19, 2022.

Return to School

Provided health trends improve, we expect students to return to school on Friday, January 28. A pandemic, by its very nature, is unpredictable and continues to create new challenges. We will continue to work in close coordination with our military community partners and military public health officials throughout this process.

Thanks for Your Support

Even in this pandemic, our guiding vision remains excellence in education for every student, every day, everywhere. The safety and well-being of our students and employees is paramount and will always be our first consideration. More information about our commitment to health is available in our COVID-19 Operational Guidelines and Protocols for Schools, available here.

If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact your school.
