It was announced Friday afternoon on the District's public Facebook page that "out of an abundance of caution" they will close for the coming two weeks because of the rise in community cases.

They had opened for the first week of school while keeping watch on the daily active COVID-19 pandemic case index. The graph shows the numbers of cases growing in the community and that led to the decision.
