COVID-19 By-the-Numbers for 8.20.2020 #TRIBE #FocusedForward
In Lumpkin County, we have two models of teaching and learning this school year. Over 600 of our students are currently in our distance virtual learning model, and the first week and a half proved to be a great start to this new school year! #FocusedForward #TR1BE
This is what's it's all about...collaborative partnerships with several agencies to benefit the students of Lumpkin County! We are looking forward to not only the literal fruits of the labor, but also the ability to compost our school kitchen scraps and have our students visit the Hometown Harvest! #BetterTogether #TR1BE #FocusedForward
We will be posting our COVID-19 By-the-Numbers every Tuesday and Thursday. Today, you'll see a spike in the number of students currently quarantined (up from 49 last Thursday). Following guidelines from the Department of Public Health, students who #MaskUp do not quarantine if exposed. #MaskUp, LC!
Lumpkin County's response rate for the 2020 Census is just over 62%. Looking at several surrounding counties, LC is not in first place. We don't know about you, but we do not like being anywhere but in first place! Complete the census today! Go to: 2020census.gov #TR1BE
With just over 600 of our students in the virtual learning model, we have a dedicated staff working with these students and parents every day! We want to see and share what virtual learning looks like for you. Send a picture of your workspace to jason.lemley@lumpkinschools.com!
It's been a successful first week of school in Lumpkin County. We want to have many more weeks like this one, so we have some special people encouraging all of us to MASK UP! #๐ฝ๐๐ฉ๐ฉ๐๐ง๐๐ค๐๐๐ฉ๐๐๐ง #๐๐ค๐๐ช๐จ๐๐๐๐ค๐ง๐ฌ๐๐ง๐

Thank you for your patience as we adapt to school traffic in Dahlonega this week!
Whereas the first week of school every year brings new traffic challenges, the number of students arriving by car has increased. Based on a count this morning, 758 students (62% of students coming to campus at LCES and LCMS) arrived at school in a personal vehicle. This increase has caused vehicles to stack up in both directions on Hwy 19 Business, and we apologize for the inconvenience.
Although the traffic has been a challenge, the increase in car-riders has resulted in more space on school buses and has improved our capacity to socially distance students on the buses.
We will continue to monitor the situation and make adjustments to our procedures in hopes of expediting the drop off process. Thank you for your continued patience!
#FocusedForward #BetterTogether #TR1BE
It takes the whole #TR1BE to thrive, and we couldn't do it without the great folks in LC! We love our community partners!

TR1BE,
With so much uncertainty remaining as we navigate our days, weeks, and months, we know that many questions are swirling concerning the plans of our upcoming school year.
We could put out a plan today that would likely need to change multiple times as health concerns and guidance changes over time.
We are not behind the eight ball. Rather, we are taking things seriously, studying our options, and formulating research-based plans of action for the new school year.
Our leadership team in Lumpkin County is currently meeting through email, virtually, and in person to work out details for the following areas: student and staff wellness, facilities, technology, school nutrition, transportation, instruction, assessment, and virtual learning. These focus groups will work in coordination with our school board to publish a final plan in mid-July.
In the meantime, itโs important for you all to know thisโstudent safety has been, is, and always will be our top priority in Lumpkin County. As parents, you will have a face-to-face option and a virtual option for your children. What those look like will be determined by the findings of our focus groups over the next month.
Rest assured, we are working tirelessly to provide the best education in the safest environment possible for your children. We know other school systems are posting their tentative plans now, and we want you to know that we arenโt asleep on this topic. We like to take a calculated, strategic approach to our planning process.
If you have questions or concerns that you would like to share with any of the focus groups mentioned above, please email jason.lemley@lumpkinschools.com or rob.brown@lumpkinschools.com. We will be sure to pass along your correspondence to the focus group leader.
Thank you for your continued support of Lumpkin County Schools!

With our ninth year for honor graduates to honor an educator from their K-12 education, LCHS didn't want to miss this special recognition just because of COVID-19.

If your child is experiencing any sadness, anger, frustration, anxiety, or any other mental health symptoms, please know that there is help. Even during COVID-19, your child can receive mental health support through the phone or video. Simply contact Georgia HOPE at 706-279-0405 OR https://gahope.org/make-a-referral/.
We at Georgia HOPE have learned along with you that children will not be returning to school for the remainder of the school year. We always depend on educators and other community partners to identify and link children and families in need to our services daily. Typically, we see a large spike in referrals prior to school letting out for the summer which allows us to serve families when school is not in session. Without your referrals we have no way of knowing which children are at risk of suffering alone until they are able to return to school this fall. We are continuing to offer all of our services while following appropriate CDC guidance to keep ourselves and clients safe.
Here's to hoping you are finding as much fun during our spring break as you all did on our last Family Fun Friday! #TR1BE

Clarification on assignments for this week: All students should have 4 days of assignments as we had 4 instructional days on our school calendar this week.
Since today was needed to prepare the online format, assignments may not have been posted early enough for students to complete the assignments today.
You may need to use Friday for the 4th day this week unless you got started today.
