Horry County Schools announces schools will reopen after Hurricane Dorian

Area schools will soon reopen after being closed for the week as Hurricane Dorian moved through the area.

Students and staff will return to Horry County Schools Monday. School district staff worked Friday to assess schools for any damage, HCS spokesperson Lisa Bourcier said.

HCS announced school closures on Labor Day ahead of Hurricane Dorian. Area schools have been closed since Tuesday.

Georgetown County also announced Friday it will return to its normal schedule on Monday.

Horry-Georgetown Technical College will reopen Monday.

“We understand that not all students may be able to get back to campus on Monday and can make accommodations for those needing more time for travel,” a news release Friday stated. “Students are asked to communicate these circumstances with faculty as soon as possible.”
