Pontotoc Junior High School will transition to a virtual format

PONTOTOC COUNTY, Miss. (WCBI)- More than a week after the Pontotoc School district moved high school students to virtual learning, they’ve announced the same decision for the junior high students.

In a press release, school district officials say Pontotoc Junior High School will transition to a virtual format.

The decision comes after watching COVID-19 cases and close contact numbers this week.

Junior High students will continue virtual learning for two weeks with plans to resume in-person classes the Monday after Thanksgiving break.
