The school district has officially approved the implementation of independent study options for our families. This outcome reflects our collective commitment to the health of our community. I appreciate the resolve shown by everyone who participated in this effort.

Dear Corona Norco School District:
Health and safety of our children and family are our top priority. We have been and will be trusting our schools to protect our children everyday when we drop them off. At this moment of fighting with Covid-19 virus, We are asking you to consider exceptional school absence excuses such as independent study or online classes if available or possible school closure to prevent the virus spreading in our community.
For most of us in Corona-Norco area, one of the largest source of outside contacts is through school. Among these families in our community, there is a large amount of families that have elders to live together under the same roof. The current data and study might indicate that children will not get sick as easily as adults. However they can be infected and become asymptomatic carriers. These children can in turn spread the virus to their parents and grandparents, thus the entire community.
Solution never comes easy. We are asking for your considerations to provide options to us. For families with elders or family members having existing medical conditions, can we have the option to keep the children at home so we can keep our social distance until the peak of the virus spreading has passed.
Again, we completely trust our school district that our children will be provided with the most safe and healthy environment. We greatly appreciate it!

This should be a parents option. Keep our kids home and let them do online school or send them to public classes. This would decrease the amount of kids in the public setting and allow some to still keep up with their schoolwork by opting to work online without attendance punishments.
They say it's a serious epidemic crisis but haven't closed schools yet! They email us saying because no one in our city has been reported infected. So, what are we suppose to do just wait and see what happens like sitting ducks?! Or how about we actually prevent anything bad from happening and let our kids get independent study until it clears out!
Yes my 93 year old grandmother and my mother who just had surgery would not make it should we get exposed/
As a parent of 2 special needs children, this seems like a no brainer to have closed the schools for a determined or even indefinite amount of time. We cannot be reactive but rather PRO-ACTIVE! This is a reckless and horribly thought through decision!
Every sporting event like the NBA among others have been shut down. Theme Parks like Disneyland have shutdown. Colleges have been shut down. If this is Pandemic why haven't they done so for our young children? CNUSD needs to take action.

Keep the kids safe. We need to be proactive and try to prevent the spread of covid19 these kids can be carriers and spread it to vulnerable people in our community. Hospitals do not have enough beds and or testing kits let alone ventilators. If we can help with the load of people in the Ers and urgent care why aren’t we?!
