The Governor announced today, not unsurprisingly, that he was ordering schools be shut down. They are allowed to be in session tomorrow and Monday, but then must be closed until April 6. There has never been anything like this. However, our school district will not be having classes tomorrow or Monday. The explanation was that the county Health Department has ordered that our district close. I suspect it is because we have a family that has to be quarantined and they decided it was more important to be separate at this point. The students will be doing remote learning, although even the school isn't exactly certain how that is going to look. Spring break for our district falls right in the middle so it helps somewhat with the "loss" of instruction time. The staff has to report tomorrow to try to get things going, and the kids will begin "home/online school" on Wednesday.
And of course, all national sporting events are cancelled, as is pretty much EVERYTHING. I've really never experienced anything like this before!
