Out of an abundance of caution, we will not have in-person classes at Clara Hearne Pre-K or Place to Play beginning today and for the rest of the week. Two of our employees tested positive and three other employees are exhibiting symptoms. After consulting with the Halifax County Health Department, we believe this is the best course of action to protect other students and staff. At this time this closure only impacts Clara Hearne students and staff. If any of your household members begin showing COVID-19 symptoms, please keep those RRGSD enrolled children at home and contact your school nurse. Clara Hearne virtual instruction will follow the same format at before.

Are you missing out? Even though our meals are free though the end of the school year, parents are being encouraged to apply online. Why apply for meal benefits when meals are already free?
Meal benefits can:
Qualify students for P-EBT
Waive the cost of ACT, SAT, AP and other tests
Provide discounts for college application process
Support funding or discounts for internet access
Impact allotments of funds for certain programs
