LCMSD Closure Extended Through The End Of The School Year

Press release from the Larkspur-Corte Madera School District:

Dear LCMSD Community,

We apologize for interrupting your break, but we have an important announcement concerning our school closure.

LCMSD CLOSURE EXTENDED THROUGH THE END OF THE SCHOOL YEAR

“Marin County has aligned with six Bay Area county health officers and county superintendents of schools to make a unified, regional decision to extend school closures through the end of the school year. All schools will continue to provide instruction through distance learning.” “Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin, San Mateo, Santa Clara and San Francisco Counties agreed to this decision for the health and safety of our communities at large. This decision follows statements by Governor Newsom and State Superintendent of Public Instruction Tony Thurmond suggesting that California’s students would not likely be able to return to campus for in-person learning for the remainder of this school year.” Please see the attached press release for more details.

Classroom-based instruction may be out for the remainder of the year, but distance learning will continue. While we understand that distance learning cannot replicate the classroom experience, our team of teachers, support staff, and administrators have been working tirelessly to create the best possible learning experiences under this current situation. Student wellness and learning will continue being our priorities as we move forward as a district. The LCMSD school closure will be extended through the remainder of the school year, June 11, 2020.

Take care,

Brett Geithman, Ed.D. & the LCMSD Leadership Team
