Bradley County and Cleveland City Schools will be closed Monday, Aug. 21, due to the solar eclipse taking place on that afternoon.
The school systems want to give families the opportunity to share the experience together, and keep their students safe.
An estimated 400,000 to 1,000,000 people will be visiting Tennessee for the total eclipse. The increased traffic will cause considerable congestion on our roads which may put our families
at risk.
Teachers will provide lessons for students regarding the eclipse.
Glasses to view the eclipse without injuring the eyes were provided by Check into Cash. The glasses will be sent home on Friday, August 18th.
