Superintendent Dr. Curtis Jones Jr. has confirmed that Bibb County School District students will return to face-to-face learning on Thursday, Feb. 18, after the scheduled Winter Break. Faculty and staff will return to the school buildings on Feb. 11.

The District had previously been learning in an entirely virtual setting since returning from Holiday Break in January. Schools will continue to follow safety protocols from prior to the break, to include wearing masks and maintaining a safe social distance. Class sizes will also be limited to 20 students.

Additionally, the District has purchased desk shields for students that should arrive in early March. Bi- polar ionization devices have been added to several school HVAC systems, with every school set to have the devices by the end of February.
