SCHOOL MESSAGE - March 20, 2020
Hello. This is Darren Root, Superintendent of the Auburn School District.
This afternoon, Governor Pritzker issued an executive order requiring residents to “stay at home” effective Saturday, March 21 at 5:00 pm, through the end of April 7. As part of the Governor’s order, he announced that school will remain closed, with a new tentative reopening date of April 8. Those of you who qualify for Grab and Go meals will not be in violation and those meals will still be provided on calendar school days – that excludes Spring Break.
The Governor also stated that those with “essential jobs” can still work, so grocery stores, pharmacies and gas stations will remain open.
Please use this opportunity to focus on staying safe. This situation is evolving. As events unfold, I will continue to communicate any information I have.
Superintendent
Darren Root
