Ask your child a specific question about school, such as, “What are the
biggest changes you’ve noticed about classes this year?”
Reminder: All official communication regarding school closures or changes to our operating schedule will be communicated to families through the district’s Facebook page and website, as well as Thrillshare, our callout system. All Ware County schools will be in session through the remainder of the week (Jovemver 10-11, 2022) unless otherwise noted through those three communication channels. Thank you!
