Long-Term Dismissal of schools extended through at least May 1

Kathleen Radecke, Superintendent of Schools, issued the following statement on March 25, 2020:
 
"The seven Bay Area county health officers, in collaboration with their county superintendents, have made a unified, regional decision to extend school closures and student dismissals from regular school attendance through May 1, 2020, to slow the spread of novel coronavirus (COVID-19) to the maximum extent. We join them in stating the safety and wellness of students, school personnel and the community are the priority.
 
Therefore, the Department of Catholic Schools is extending our Long-Term Dismissal through at least May 1, 2020. This decision aligns us with the recommendation of our local health officials. I know all of us would like to have our students and faculty/staff back into the classrooms as soon as possible. However, the health and well-being of all are our priority. Additionally, during this time, we ask our school communities to continue to adhere to the “Shelter in Place” order issued by our local health agencies and Governor Newsom. 
  
Please know we have a close partnership with our local health departments. We urge you to keep practicing the guidance provided by public health officers including:

• Social distancing
• Washing hands often with soap and water
• Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth
• Staying home if you are feeling sick
• Contacting your healthcare provider if you are experiencing any symptoms such as fever, cough, or difficulty breathing. 
• Engage in regular exercise or physical activity"
