Dear Craig School Parents,

On Monday, March 2, I wrote to all of you concerning COVID-19, aka Coronavirus.  Each day this week, we have all learned more about the virus, and in the last couple of days more about the known cases in NJ, and the protocols to follow.

During this school week, many schools who are members of the New Jersey Association of Independent Schools (NJAIS), shared through our regular list-serve system how we could be implementing programs online, in the event of mandated school closures.  As indicated in my letter on Monday, we have systems in place, as we use them now for daily instruction. We are shoring up areas where there may be gaps.

Today, the New Jersey Department of Education (NJDOE) invited those of us from non-public schools to join a conference call on Coronavirus.  Heads of schools and others heard from the State Public School Commissioner, and the Department of Health to give us the most update information as we go into the weekend.

My administrative team continues to meet as relevant information comes to our attention, particularly as it becomes focused needs to be shared.

I am reminded daily that the Center for Disease Control(CDC) and their information is a great source of information for the public

Have a wonderful and safe weekend.

Tad
