The governor has issued a stay-at-home order until April 8, 2020. This order also extended the date which schools could resume in-person instruction. Although the current date to return is April 8, many of us are thinking that this date may be extended. Several states have already closed their schools to in-person instruction for the rest of the school year. We need to begin planning for a long-term closure so that we are as prepared as possible as the situation continues to evolve.

Beginning March 31, instead of students and teachers assigning daily work following our eLearning schedule, we will move to a virtual “block” schedule. See the schedule here. This schedule will continue until we re-open OLCHS for in-person instruction. We will update this schedule in case the closure goes on beyond April 17.
