On Tuesday, the Antioch Unified School District announced that it has cancelled its School Board Meeting scheduled for Wednesday and is now following county recommendations on “Interim Guidance for Social Distancing”.

According to the District, who was expecting more than 50-people to attends its board meeting, has cancelled its March 11 meeting.

The District also said Tuesday that all schools will consider postponing or cancelling events in which less than 50 people attend if the event is not essential.

SUPERINTENDENT UPDATES REGARDING COVID-

Good afternoon,

A short time ago, Contra Costa Health Services issued “Interim Guidance for Social Distancing” in an effort to slow the spread of COVID-19. It includes the following:

  • Cancel or postpone large gatherings such as concerts, sporting events, celebrations, conventions, religious services and community events where 50 or more people are within arm’s length of each other.
  • Cancel or postpone events for or attended by older adults or others who are at a higher risk for severe illness.

In accordance with these guidelines and until further notice, all events outside of the school day that may be attended by 50 or more people have been cancelled. Additionally, all schools will consider postponing or cancelling events in which less than 50 ppl are expected in attendance if the event is not essential. Please contact your child’s school should you have any questions.

We will continue to update you as new information becomes available.

Thank you for your continued support.

Sincerely,
Stephanie Anello
