Submitted by Kelsey Penrose on Fri, 03/13/2020 - 5:22pm
The Carson City School District issued statements in English and Spanish Friday afternoon alerting the community to the suspension of all after-school activities, assemblies, concerts, practices, and general large-group gathering in response to the COVID-19 outbreak.
The statements are as follows:
Good afternoon,
The Board of Trustees, District Administration, and state and local health officials continue to evaluate and respond to the evolving nature of the Coronavirus. We all desire to maintain the safety and well-being of our students and staff.
Currently, there are no planned school closures at this time. The goal of the Carson City School District is to provide the essential components of education for our children to maintain a sense of stability in our community. Even so, the Nevada Association of School Superintendents and the individual school districts across the state are united in taking the following actions out of an abundance of caution and in an attempt to minimize the spread of Coronavirus and other infectious diseases:
1) All school, district, and non-district sponsored athletics, extra-curricular activities, assemblies, concerts, practices, and events are suspended effective Monday, March 16, 2020 until further notice.
2) Activities and events scheduled later in the school year, including graduation ceremonies will be evaluated closer to the date.
3) Restrictions on student and staff travel remain in place.
4) Essential after-school programs such as tutoring and latch-key will continue as currently scheduled.
As always, we encourage staff and students who are ill to remain at home. Should a Coronavirus case impact a school directly, the District will update parents, staff, and the community regarding next steps.
Thank you,
CCSD Administration
Buenas Tardes,
El Consejo Directivo, la Administración del Distrito y los funcionarios de salud estatales y locales continúan evaluando y respondiendo al carácter evolutivo del Coronavirus. Todos deseamos mantener la seguridad y el bienestar de nuestros estudiantes y personal.
Actualmente, no hay cierres escolares planeados en este momento. El objetivo del Distrito Escolar de Carson City es proveer los componentes esenciales de la educación para que nuestros niños mantengan un sentido de estabilidad en nuestra comunidad. Aun así, la Asociación de Superintendentes Escolares de Nevada y los distritos escolares individuales en todo el estado están unidos en tomar las siguientes acciones por precaución y en un intento por minimizar la propagación de COVID-19 y otras enfermedades infecciosas:
1) Todos los deportes, actividades extracurriculares, asambleas, conciertos, prácticas y eventos escolares patrocinados por el distrito, incluyendo los que no son patrocinados por el distrito están suspendidos a partir del lunes 16 de marzo del 2020 hasta nuevo aviso.
2) Las actividades y eventos programados más tarde en el año escolar, incluyendo las ceremonias de graduación, se evaluarán más cerca de la fecha.
3) Las restricciones de viaje para los estudiantes y el personal permanecen vigentes.
4) Los programas esenciales después de la escuela, como la tutoría y latch-key, seguirán tal y como están programados actualmente.
Como siempre, alentamos al personal y los estudiantes que estén enfermos a quedarse en casa. En caso de que un caso COVID-19 afecte directamente a una escuela, el Distrito les avisaría a los padres, al personal y la comunidad con respecto a los próximos pasos.
Gracias,
Administración de CCSD
