Hopkins said COVID-19 hit the district hard after fall break and Thanksgiving, and extending virtual learning was the best option for the safety of students and staff.
The district does still have virtual learning options for the coming semester, and parents who are interested in their child learning from home should contact their child’s school.
Lincoln County had 166 new COVID-19 cases Wednesday.
