El Distrito 19 tiene otro caso positivo de Covid para un total de dos confirmados. Las personas que necesitan saber ya han sido contactadas. Por lo tanto, si nadie ha hablado con usted personalmente, esto no le afecta y no hay necesidad de preocupación. Todos los pasos y protocolos se han tomado y se están siguiendo. Con fuertes esfuerzos para continuar la transición a nuestro aprendizaje híbrido/en persona, queríamos recordarle que nuestro objetivo es mantenernos transparentes e informativos a través de este proceso. Agradecemos su flexibilidad continua durante este tiempo. Por favor, esté atento para entender el procedimiento para determinar cuándo nuestra comunidad escolar debe ser informada de un caso COVID positivo. Solo notificaremos a aquellas personas que se consideren contactos cercanos a un caso positivo. Es fundamental que no divulguemos casos positivos a nadie que no sea aquellos que se vean directamente afectados o en riesgo. Si tiene alguna pregunta o inquietud, comuníquese con nosotros.

We will only notify those individuals who are considered close contacts to a positive case. It is critical that we not disclose positive cases to anyone other than those being directly impacted or at risk. If you have any questions or concerns, please reach out.
Familias del Distrito 19: Hemos recibido una serie de consultas con respecto a las métricas de salud pública y las tendencias actuales a nivel del condado. Estamos monitoreando la situación de cerca en cooperación con el Departamento de Salud del Condado de McHenry. Dados los fuertes aumentos en las métricas clave de los últimos días, es posible que en un futuro próximo se requieran cambios en nuestros planes de aprendizaje híbrido y un cambio de regreso al aprendizaje remoto. Como ha sido el caso desde el comienzo de nuestro viaje de reapertura, nuestros planes siguen a merced de factores de salud pública más grandes. Por favor, haga los preparativos para estar listo en caso de que sea necesario un cambio de nuevo al Aprendizaje Remoto en un futuro próximo. Estaremos en comunicación con cualquier actualización. Gracias, Distrito 19
District 19 Families:
We’ve received a number of inquiries regarding public health metrics and current county-level trends. We are monitoring the situation closely in cooperation with the McHenry County Department of Health. Given the sharp rises in key metrics over the past several days, changes to our hybrid learning plans and a shift back to remote learning may be required in the near future.
As has been the case since the start of our reopening journey, our plans remain at the mercy of larger public health factors. Please make preparations to be ready should a shift back into Remote Learning be necessary in the near future. We will be in communication with any updates.
Thank you,
District 19

All Alden-Hebron Schools Closed - Starting Monday, March 16 District 19 will close schools to help contain and mitigate the continued spreading of the coronavirus (COVID-19). Please continue to check www.ah19.org for updated information.
Due to the continued concerns with the spread of the Corona Virus and out of extreme caution for the safety of our families and students, and following the recommendations of the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) to avoid large gatherings, including the upcoming play and 5th grade living museum, any audience or spectator events, such as concerts, funfairs, STEM nights, sporting events, and school-sponsored events are canceled immediately, until further notice.
School clubs, activities, and sport practices including students and staff only will still be held as of now. .
Message from Lake County Tech Campus:
The Tech Campus believes the safety of students and staff is our top priority. In our attempt to help contain and mitigate the continued spreading of the virus, the Tech Campus plans to cancel classes and close the campus beginning March 16-March 20. The Tech Campus will be on spring break the following week, March 23-27. We will follow our e-Learning procedures each day of the week. During this time, we will be deep cleaning our entire facility as well as minimizing the chances of a virus transfer from person to person. This action is not a result of any recommendation from the department of health, but I feel that it’s in the best interest of our students, staff, and our communities.
