Dear Trona Joint Unified School District Families: In response to the COVID-19 outbreak, the Trona Board of Education took action today to temporarily close Trona High School and Trona Elementary School from Tuesday, March 17th , 2020 and return on Monday April 13th , 2020. All school events have been postponed until further notice. Safety of our students, staff and community are our #1 priority. All staff will be meeting tomorrow to collaborate and develop a plan to ensure continuity of learning, while following CDC’s guidelines so that everyone can remain safe. Parents and students will be notified of the plan, and will be provided with instruction and resources from teachers, so that students can have access to learning during this time. Please expect to receive this information no later than tomorrow evening. The District will be providing a “Grab and Go” lunch in the cafeteria starting tomorrow but will run Monday through Friday from 11:00 am to 12:30 pm, pick up only. The lunch is available for all children 18 and under, and must be present to receive. Delivery to bus stops could be an option in the future if necessary, we will let you know.

Please parents, it is important to reassure your child that if they follow the CDC guidelines so they are safe. Please let us know if there is anything we can do for you.

District Families: There will be an emergency meeting of Governance Board of the Trona Joint Unified School District 10:00 am on Monday, March 16th to discuss the appropriate preparations and/or actions the district will take in response to the COVID-19 situation. Please be assured that the safety of our students, staff and surrounding community is our upmost concern.  Although there have been no confirmed cases of COVID-19 in either Kern or San Bernardino Counties as of March 14th, we realize this is a very fluid situation and could change at any time.  We are also aware that our schools provide essential services to our students such as meals, health and mental health services and child care, therefore the decision to close our schools will not be taken lightly. Until additional notification, classes at Trona Elementary and Trona High School will continue as regularly scheduled.  Our staff is hard at work developing contingency plans for providing school related services like meals, childcare and alternate forms of instruction should closing the schools become necessary.   We encourage parents and community members to attend the emergency board meeting tomorrow at 10:00 am at Trona Elementary School if you have any questions or concerns you would like to address.  Sincerely, Interim Assistant Superintendent, Janet Malony
