HORRY COUNTY, S.C. (WMBF) - Many private schools in Horry County began the school year five days a week face-to-face.
While not all, the full-time face-to-face format is what some parents have hoped for in public schools.
Risen Christ Christian Academy has the five days of full-time traditional learning, except for this week. There was a positive COVID-19 case and the decision to move to virtual for the week was due to some staff members having direct exposure. Students will continue with five days a week on Monday.
