Dear Parents and School Staff:

For the last few weeks we have been working with state and local Health Department officials about likely scenarios and possible action steps related to the COVID-19 (Coronavirus) situation.

Ohio Governor Mike DeWine mandated a school closure for a period of three weeks. McComb School will be CLOSED starting Monday, March 16, 2020 through Friday, April 3, 2020.

Effective March 13, 2020: McComb Local School will operate under the following guidelines:

	All field trips are suspended for an indefinite period of time. Any out of district travel will occur only with permission by the superintendent or designee.
	All after school indoor and weekend activities/events are suspended for an indefinite period of time. This includes all previously scheduled approved building permit indoor events.
	All extra-curricular activities and practices are suspended indefinitely during the mandatory school closures. All activities will cease effective 12:01 A.M. on March 14, 2020.
	Students should be prepared for remote learning curriculum options if deemed necessary.

We appreciate the continued support and understanding as we deal with this situation that appears to change almost hourly. The school district will continue to monitor new developments and take the necessary steps to protect our students, staff and school community.

The school district will use Ohio Alerts and the school website to communicate all updates.

Yours in Education,

Tony Fenstermaker
