Below are events and programs being canceled or postponed, according to the district:

• We are canceling the Thursday, March 12 and Friday, March 13 performances of the RMS Musical, “Frozen, Jr.” The 4 p.m. and 7 p.m. Saturday shows will take place as scheduled, however the performances will be closed to the public. We will be video recording each Saturday performance to provide complimentary DVDs to each cast and crew member. We will provide refunds for all performances. We will consider rescheduling performances for the public at a later date if that is possible.

• We are postponing until further notice the Radnor Elementary School Musical, “Aladdin, Jr.,” which is scheduled from March 19 to March 22. We will attempt to re-stage the performances at later dates. We will provide further directions next week.
• All events open to the public are canceled until the end of the day, Sunday, March 22. We will reassess this decision next week.
• All athletic competitions are canceled until the end of the day, Sunday, March 22. Practices and student club meetings can still take place as scheduled. We will reassess this decision next week.
• All school-related field trips and overnight trips, regardless of location, are canceled through Sunday, April 12.
• All outside group activities using RTSD indoor facilities are canceled until further notice. Field usage will be permitted with no access to buildings. As an example, since the Radnor Aquatic Club is an indoor program, activities for the club are canceled until further notice. As another example, the SATs this Saturday at RHS are canceled since an outside group, the College Board, hosts the event for students from across the region. If we could have limited the SATs to only our students, we would have hosted it. We will work closely with the College Board to reschedule. After-school clubs and activities involving just Radnor students and are school-sponsored will continue.
• All scheduled guests for in-class and student assemblies are canceled until further notice.
• All visitors other than parents/guardians are prohibited from entering our school buildings until further notice. Any questions about this procedure should be directed to the school building principal.

• As long as school is in session, the elementary Right at School program will continue to operate before- and after-school care and after-school clubs run by Right at School and our PTOs will also continue.
