Due to expected lower temperatures potentially causing slick roads tonight, we are transitioning to a remote learning day for Thursday, December 17 for students in grades PreK-8. Teachers will be available to assist students during their office hours. Mount Airy High School students who have a CTE or EOC exam for first period will start their testing at 10:30. More information will come home to MAHS students in their student email and on Schoology. Due to our staggered schedule, we are unable to have delays district-wide and this information was shared with our weather memo on November 18. You can find more information regarding inclement weather calls on our website. We are grateful for the opportunity to transition to remote learning days to avoid make-up days.

Mount Airy City Schools uses Bark for Schools to help us monitor school-issued accounts for signs of digital dangers. When potential issues like cyberbullying, suicidal ideation, and threats of violence arise, Bark sends us a notification. Parents and guardians can benefit from receiving these alerts, as well.
