As Meade County Schools prepare for the September 28th in-person start date, Superintendent Mark Martin says that the priority is making sure the return is done safely. Martin says that prior to fall break, the district will be implementing a “phased” return process.

Post fall break, the return will change slightly. Provided the county is not in the red in terms of COVID cases, middle and high school students will go to an A/B schedule, and elementary school students will see a return to class five days a week. Martin says that this is due to the ability of middle and high school students to participate in virtual learning, as well as other factors. 

If the district is in the red, Martin says that the district will return to virtual learning for the protection of students, staff, and the community. 

A Radcliff man was arrested Friday after allegedly pointing a gun at a family member.

According to arrest citations, the victim advised that her family member, Carlus Cox, had come home intoxicated, claiming he wanted to find a camper trailer that had been stolen. Cox grabbed a gun, stating he would find the camper. The victim says she tried to stop Cox, at which time he allegedly pointed the gun at the victim. Cox put the gun away, only to return to allegedly start a physical altercation, which left the victim with visible marks after he pinned the victim down. Cox was charged with assault 4th and wanton endangerment 1st degree.

He was lodged in the Hardin County Detention Center.
