Officials with Cy-Fair ISD announced March 12 that all district campuses and facilities would be closed next week as a precautionary measure in the wake of coronavirus. This announcement comes a day after Harris County Judge Lina Hidalgo signed an emergency declaration for the county.
“Although there are no confirmed cases of COVID-19 in CFISD, in an abundance of caution, CFISD, along with most neighboring school districts, will close all schools and facilities next week,” Superintendent Mark Henry said in a statement March 12.
All before- and after-school care programs, extracurricular activities and field trips for students are canceled effective immediately. District employees are being asked not to report to work effective at 4 p.m. March 13. All buildings, including the Berry Center, will be closed to outside rentals during this time.
As of the March 12 announcement, district officials plan to resume normal operations on Monday, March 23, but said they are actively monitoring the situation and are in communication with local, state and federal officials.
“It is paramount that we protect the health of our students, our staff and our community,” Henry said. “It takes all of us working together to ensure healthy learning environments.”
