SHELBY COUNTY, Tenn. — The Shelby County School District announced it will be a little more lenient with dress code for students participating in virtual learning when class begins this month.

Students are expected to look presentable regardless of their location, but SCS will allow some flexibility when it comes to bottoms and footwear.

Superintendent Dr. Joris Ray also announced that each virtual learning day will begin at 8 a.m. and end at 3 p.m. SCS will revert to their standard bell times when students return to in-school learning.
