Sumter School District sent its teachers home to work remotely today after the district experienced internet connectivity issues across the county via its service provider.

Teachers aimed to provide an assignment for the day once the issue was resolved.

The district went back to all virtual instruction last month due to the continued surge in new coronavirus cases and plans to go back to hybrid learning on Jan. 21, depending on virus trends.
