Coronavirus COVID-19 Update
Cambrian School District, March 6, 2020
Dear Cambrian Families,
The Cambrian School District, the Santa Clara County Public Health Department and the Santa Clara County Office of Education (SCCOE) continue to work together in response to COVID-19. This is critical timing with the spread of COVID-19 in Santa Clara County. The Santa Clara Public Health Department has issued recent recommendations meant to slow the spread of COVID-19 in our community, reduce the number of infections, and protect those who are most vulnerable.
Given new recommendations today to slow the spread of COVID-19, our District is implementing these guidelines. As such, we will be postponing the Family Dances at both Sartorette Elementary School and Farnham Elementary School planned for Friday, March 6th and Saturday, March 7th. The reason for this recent decision was because the school events were to take place indoors with a large number of students/school community members. It would be difficult to accommodate and maintain the recommended arm’s length distance between all individuals for the full duration of this type of event.
We recognize Family Dances are a wonderful opportunity for our students and their families. As such we will be postponing the event to a later date. We appreciate your understanding of this decision and will keep you updated as soon as new event dates have been chosen. Moving forward, we will continue to evaluate non-instructional events over the next month and will keep you informed as to guidelines in accordance with the Santa Clara County Public Health Department and SCCOE in as timely a manner as possible. Thank you again for your understanding as new information is known.
In the Cambrian School District, nothing exceeds the importance of the health and well-being of students, families, and staff.
Sincerely,
Amy O'Hehir
Farnham Elementary Principal

Sartorette Elementary Principal
