Covid – 19 Update: Back To ONLINE School for Spring 2020
Spring Break is done, students have returned to a new “Back To School” for online spring classes.
We want to know HOW local students are doing with distance learning. Please respond to this very short survey to share your experience.
Today, many students began or resumed distance learning following Spring Break. Some schools will begin rolling out distance learning this week, others are picking up where they left off earlier this month. Access to assignments and instruction, for now, varies from school to school and class to class. Prior to Spring Break, it was announced that schools will not be reopening campuses and will continue distance learning for the rest of the school year.
For current information about closures and their impact on the school year, check your local school district.

FAQ
It is ok to go outside for exercise, a walk or fresh air – so long as you are maintaining a safe social distance of six feet from people who aren’t part of your household. Gyms are closed.
Californians can walk, run, hike and bike in their local neighborhoods as long as they continue to practice social distancing of 6 feet. This means avoiding crowded trails & parking lots. To help reduce crowds, State Parks is modifying operations at some parks, including closing vehicular access and parking lots to reduce density of visitors. A list of closures can be found at www.parks.ca.gov/flattenthecurve. Everyone has the responsibility to “Flatten the COVID-19 Curve at Parks” by maintaining a social distance of 6 feet or more when recreating in the outdoors, and staying home if they are sick. If visitors cannot maintain social distancing, they need to leave the park.
