#SCSCelebrates | We are excited to share that our first 26-27 Surry MEP Parent Advisory Council (PAC) Meeting was a great success! Our parents were highly active and engaged as they came together to share ideas, connect, and help strengthen our Migrant Education Program.
During the meeting, parents also elected new PAC officers who will help represent and support our MEP families throughout the year.
Mr. Gerardo Linares does an incredible job leading and coordinating these efforts, building relationships with our families, and making sure our MEP parents have a strong voice in our program.
We are looking forward to an exciting school year and all the possibilities it brings!

#SCSSchoolNutrition | SCS cafeterias are serving up nutritious, delicious options every day, and we want our students to make the most of them! 🥗🍓🥕
Parents, encourage your student to try something new at lunch. Grab the pizza, sure…but don’t forget to add some fresh fruit, vegetables, or a salad to the plate, too!
A balanced lunch helps fuel students for learning, growing, and making the most of their school day. So, next time you’re in the lunch line, look beyond the usual choice and give something new a try!

#SCSUpdates | The City of Mount Airy has identified an issue with the water supply serving all schools in the North District and is working to resolve it. The cause of the issue is still being investigated, but the water has been confirmed safe for consumption. The water does, however, have an unusual odor.
Out of an abundance of caution, Surry County Schools is providing bottled water to students and staff at all affected locations.
Bathrooms throughout the affected schools remain safe to use, and school operations will continue as normal. We anticipate the issue will be resolved quickly and will share additional updates as more information becomes available.
We appreciate the City of Mount Airy’s efforts to address the issue and thank our families and staff for their patience and understanding.

#SCSUpdates | Good afternoon, Surry County Schools families. Surry County Schools wants to make you aware of a recent cybersecurity incident involving Canvas, the learning management system used by school districts and organizations across the country.
Canvas has informed districts that a criminal threat actor gained unauthorized access to certain account-related data associated with some organizations using the platform. At this time, Canvas has indicated there is no evidence that passwords, dates of birth, Social Security numbers, financial information, or government identification numbers were involved.
Canvas reports that the unauthorized access was identified and removed, the vulnerability has been addressed, and additional security protections have been implemented. The company is continuing to work with outside forensic experts, federal law enforcement, and cybersecurity agencies as the investigation continues.
At this time, we do not have an estimated timeline for when Canvas access will be restored. Our staff is working closely with state officials, Canvas, and technology partners to monitor the situation and determine any potential impact to Surry County Schools.
Schools and teachers will communicate alternative methods for assignments and classroom communication as needed while Canvas access remains unavailable.
We understand the importance of protecting student and staff information and will continue to provide updates as more verified information becomes available. Thank you for your patience and support.
