Dear Dooly K-8 Academy Families,
An 8” water main line burst in the City of Pinehurst on Wednesday, August 10, 2022. The water cannot be tested until August 11th, thus making the water unsafe to drink, cook, or wash hands until it has been cleared. Therefore, the Dooly K-8 Academy must be closed on Thursday, August 11th for students, faculty and staff. Dooly K8 faculty and staff will receive directions from school administration regarding work responsibilities. Dooly County High School will remain open for school. All high school students, faculty and staff should report to DCHS on August 11th. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
The Dooly County School System will provide book bags and some school supplies on the first day of school during homeroom at the Dooly K-8 Academy. The following supplies are also needed:
Pre-K: baby wipes, box of tissues, hand sanitizer/bottle soap, change of clothes (shirt, pants, underwear);
Kindergarten: hand sanitizer, disinfecting wipes, box of tissues;
1st grade: box of tissues, hand sanitizer, baby wipes;
