Letter written by the Glenn County Office of Education Superintendent ensuring students and parents that COVID-19 was not an immediate threat in the area. As school districts in urban areas began closing to prevent the spread, rural counties were left justifying their reasons for keeping schools open. Ultimately, every school in Glenn County was closed four days after this letter was released.
