Crew said no employees are to report until further notice.
“We are doing this in a proactive attempt to help reduce the curve of the coronavirus pandemic and protect our employees,” she said.
The “humanitarian effort” of providing lunch and breakfast items through the Lunch Bus will still continue, Crew said.
“The Lunch Bus will be in operation next week (spring break) as we are cognizant of the financial impact the business closures have on many of our families,” she said.
The district has been able to distribute 1,210 breakfast and lunches to students at the scheduled stops.

“I’d like to extend our appreciation to all who have provided help in making the Lunch Bus a possibility,” Crew said.
Crew asks students to continue working on the assignments they received last week.
“We are working on plans to transition to remote learning to educate our students, per Governor DeWine and State Superintendent DeMaria’s request, as they indicated this afternoon the three-week break will more than likely be extended,” she said. “We do not know at this time by how long, but the coronavirus is not expected to peak until May 1st, according to Governor DeWine.”
The district will update the community as they receive more information, Crew said.
“We are a resilient district and community and I know, evident by how we have previously all worked together to help one another, that we will continue to do so,” she said.
