MADISON, Ala. — Madison City Schools is adjusting its in-person school schedule.
Superintendent Dr. Ed Nichols announced that the district will continue to monitor its positive and quarantine COVID numbers and may adjust the schedule again. The new schedule will last through most of February.
Elementary schools will remain in-person Monday-Thursday with virtual learning on Fridays. Middle and high schools will move to an A/B/A/B schedule Monday-Thursday with virtual learning on Fridays.
The schedule for the next few weeks will be as follows:
Elementary: School-Based Students
School-based students will learn in-person: February 1-4, 8-11, 16-19
All school-based students will learn virtually: February 5, 12

Other schools in the Tennessee Valley have also temporarily moved to remote learning.
Grissom High School and Weatherly Heights Elementary School will have all-virtual learning from Feb. 1 to Feb. 5. Traditional learning students will return to classrooms on Feb. 8.
Earlier in January, approximately 150 students from Discovery Middle School were asked to quarantine after exposure to COVID. Superintendent Ed Nichols in a letter to the district's families said most of these quarantines resulted from two separate athletic teams being exposed to a positive case of the virus.
