Families:
and Students:
The Governing Board voted last night to accept the recommendation of Superintendent Eimear O’Brien that distance learning in Clovis Unified continue through the end of the current school year, June 5, 2020. The recommendation was made in light of California’s continued Stay at Home order. Clovis Unified school teams will work directly with students and families to coordinate end of the year business such as returning textbooks, uniforms, library books or other school-owned items, picking up work or belongings left at school, and turning in final or make up school work.
A team is already at work on details of safety, scheduling and operational work needed to return to campuses August 17 to start the school year. Details of what the school day will look like will be shared with families no later than July 16, a full month before the start of the school year.
Guidance from the Centers for Disease Control, State Department of Education and the Fresno County Public Health Department will be used in these plans, which will prioritize the safety of students and employees, and the critical need for Pre-K to Grade 12 students to receive high quality instruction.
