DARE Co., N.C. – Schools in Dare County will be reopening on Monday after the DCS Board of Education unanimously voted to reopen schools in their Oct. 1 meeting.

The Board approved Option 2 where students in Pre K-5 will go to school every day (Plan A) while students in grades 6-12 will attend school (Plan B) in two cohorts on a hybrid schedule.

Officials said when 6-12 students are not in school, they will work remotely.

Students who are on the Extended Content Standards in separate classrooms K-12 will attend school every day, starting Monday.

The K-12 DCS Virtual School will begin on October 26.
