TUCSON, Ariz. — In light of the coronavirus, Tucson Unified School District says they are taking precautions to make sure students are kept safe.
In a new letter sent to parents, the district says they are now regularly disinfecting high-touch surface areas and monitoring travel advisories. So far, the planned summer travel program to take students to South Korea was canceled.
TUSD officials explained and demonstrated these procedures in a video posted Tuesday morning:
TUSD says they are working with Pima County Health, and right now the department is not recommending any school closures since the risk of the virus remains low.
A presentation about the coronavirus is planned for TUSD's regular board meeting Tuesday night.
