CCSD Safe Return
In an effort to help protect the health and safety of our students and staff, the CCSD Board of Trustees has mandated and will now enforce the wearing of facemasks in all schools and facilities by students, employees, and visitors, according to CCSD Policy ADD (Face Coverings).
Enforcement of CCSD Policy ADD will begin on Monday, September 20, and will run through October 15 by Board action. Policy ADD may be extended beyond October 15, based on the county’s COVID activity as determined by SC DHEC.
