Tucker County schools are on remote instruction status until October 12th, after more than two dozen of the school system employees had to be quarantined, following contract tracing connected to active COVID-19 cases. There are only six COVID-19 cases in the school system and just 18 in the entire county; those who had possible contact with those individuals has created a staff shortage. Seven of those under quarantine are bus drivers, which represents more than half of the county’s fleet.
