Welcome back! Students, please check your email and Google Classroom for information regarding class times and schedules. We will also be offering Grab & Go Meal service today for all students from 11 to 1 at both Manning & Belmont Elementary. We got this! #VirtualLearning #KidsAreOurCustomers

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.
