California public schools are likely to be closed for the remainder of the school year, Gov. Gavin Newsom said Tuesday to anxious parents and educators.
The state’s public schools are likely to be closed for the remainder of the school year in response to the escalating coronavirus pandemic, a disruption that would affect the education of 6.1 million students and their families, Gov. Gavin Newsom said Tuesday.
Millions more across the state, including those in Palm Springs and Sacramento, were ordered to shelter in place, similar to the rules imposed Monday across the Bay Area.The virus has now claimed 13 lives in California. Two new deaths were reported Tuesday — one in the Coachella Valley in Riverside County and a man in his 50s in Santa Clara County who was hospitalized on March 9.
Nationwide, well over half the states in the country have closed their public schools or ordered them to close in the coming days.The K-12 school closures come on top of widespread actions by private colleges and state universities — including most of the University of California, to cancel in-person classes and move to online learning.
He added that officials have not yet discussed the potential option of extending the school year into the summer. Newsom acknowledged the challenging road ahead and said that standardized testing will not take place this spring. “We think it is totally inappropriate for kids to worry” about being tested, he said. Teachers and students “already have enough anxiety.”Advertisement
She said this moment calls for families and communities to reflect on what they need and care about most.
