To Parents and the Warren County Public Schools Community:

After careful consideration and communication with health officials and the Virginia Department of Education, Warren County Public Schools has decided to extend spring break. Spring break will begin Monday, March 16 and extend through Friday, March 27. Currently, we expect students to return to school on Monday, March 30, 2020.

On Monday, March 16, continued deep cleaning and disinfecting will take place at each of our county schools and ancillary buildings to prepare for the return of students. Buildings will be closed to the community to allow cleaning to occur. All student activities and community use of buildings during this period have been suspended.

All buildings will be closed to both employees and the public Monday, March 16, 2020, for deep cleaning. Eleven and twelve-month employees will return to work on Tuesday, March 17, 2020.

Student meals will be available at no charge through a drive-through service at E. Wilson Morrison Elementary School beginning Tuesday, March 17.

More information will be posted on the Warren County Public Schools website and through phone calls home.

During this time, Warren County Public Schools will be communicating in a variety of ways. We will use the Warren County Public Schools website and our phone messaging system to provide updates.

The CDC has provided guidance and preventative measures to keep you healthy during this time of uncertainty. https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-nCoV/index.html

Sincerely,
