The district’s executive team continues to meet daily to monitor and discuss the latest developments in the coronavirus situation across the nation and will continue to do so during spring break. We continue to be in regular communication with the Iowa Department of Public Health and the Dubuque County Health Department and at time of this update, there are currently no confirmed cases of coronavirus in Dubuque County.
There are a few updates to share today, Friday, March 13:
- The Hempstead High School music program trip to Florida has officially been cancelled in conjunction with the closing of Walt Disney World.
- With a large number of events in flux throughout the community, the district is suspending the weekly Digital Backpack email at this time. Questions about events posted on the backpack should be directed to the hosting organization.
The next update from the district is scheduled for Monday, March 16, at approximately 3 p.m. Should there be important developments prior to that time, we will share them as soon as possible.
