Transylvania County Schools elementary educators and administrators will begin LETRS (Language Essentials for Teachers of Reading and Spelling) training in January 2022.  This is in accordance with the Excellent Public Schools Act, signed in April 2021.  This training will require approximately 30 hours of professional development learning during the spring of 2022.  To assist with the required live LETRS training sessions, TCS will make the following changes to the current school calendar:
  • February 18 will become a normal school day.  It was previously designated as an Early Release Day. 
  • February 21 Remote Learning Day will move to February 24.
  • February 25 will become a Remote Learning Day.
  • April 29 will become a Remote Learning Day.   
The revised school calendar for 2021-2022 is attached.  Dr. Brian Weaver will answer any questions you may have.
