Stay At Home Message from Governor Pritzker
Dear D103 Staff and Community,
On Friday, March 20, Governor Pritzker issued an executive order requiring residents to “stay at home” effective Saturday, March 21 at 5:00 p.m., through the end of Tuesday, April 7, 2020. As part of the Governor’s order, he announced that all schools in Illinois will remain closed, with a new tentative reopening date no earlier than Wednesday, April 8. We recognize that this development may raise questions about the impact on students, staff, and families as well as the school’s vital role of providing meals to students and families while schools are closed. We are partnering with the Exceptional Learners Collaborative to offer meals weekdays from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. at their office, 990 Corporate Woods Parkway, Vernon Hills. We anticipate further guidance and details from the Illinois State Board of Education next week.
During this stay at home order, essential school personnel may still report to work as long as they are practicing social distancing. We want you to know the Governor’s office has assured school districts that school personnel involved in providing meals for families in need will not be in violation of the Governor’s executive order and that we can, and should, continue with our program, which has had a tremendous impact in making sure our students are not going hungry while school is closed.
In addition, the Governor has made it clear that, while he is serious about using social distancing to slow the spread of COVID-19, he wants residents to still be able to work, shop at grocery stores, put gas in their cars, take walks outside and get medication from their pharmacy. Rest assured, we are committed to doing our best to provide continuity of education.
Please use this opportunity to focus on staying safe and helping to slow the spread of the virus. As always, thank you for your patience and support as we all work through the COVID-19 pandemic. As you have seen, this situation is evolving rapidly. As events unfold, we will continue to communicate in a timely and transparent manner.
Sincerely,
Scott Warren, Ed.D
Superintendent of D103 Schools
