Due to a rapid increase in the number of COVID-19 cases in our schools, high student and employee absentee rates, and staffing shortages, Murray City School District will move to remote learning on Tuesday, January 18, 2022. The adjusted schedule will provide an opportunity to minimize the substantial spread among students and employees. Face-to-face learning will resume on Wednesday, January 19, 2022.
