This is the image for the news article titled Online Registration Opens July 28 with In Person Aug. 4-6The change in Weakley County Schools’ first day of classes to Aug. 17 and the need for social distancing have meant changes to registration procedures as well.

On-line registration for the 2020-21 school year will be open on Tuesday, July 28, and continue through Aug. 5. In-person registration for the 2020-21 school year has been rescheduled for Aug. 4-6.
