The 2020-2021 school year saw many changes for McHarg and Belle Heth Elementary Schools in Radford City, Virginia. McHarg Elementary serves students in grades K-2 and Belle Heth Elementary serves students in grades 3-6. McHarg Elementary is under renovations and construction, necessitating their move. During the summer of 2020, McHarg Elementary moved into the Belle Heth Elementary building to join the schools together. This was all accomplished while ensuring mitigation standards were in place due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Belle Heth and McHarg joined two schools into one family. McHarg and Belle Heth Elementary Schools joined together to make things work, and have flourished. Together, the schools have expanded Belle Heth’s house system to include McHarg students and staff. The schools have also combined to form clubs funded by Project Grow, write letters to soldiers serving in the military, and implement high engagement learning for activities like Rock Your School.
