McKinney ISD extends spring break another week due to coronavirus concerns

Frisco and Plano ISDs also announced March 12 that they will be extending spring break by another week.

The district will be posting updates to its website and social media channels.

District offices will be closed during this time, and all district events and competitions that have been scheduled to take place during this time frame are be considered canceled until further notice, McDaniel said in the post. Student travel for events and competitions outside of the district will also be evaluated on a case-by-case basis.

“We are taking these steps out of an abundance of caution,” McDaniel said in the post. “Public health officials have not yet made this a requirement for public institutions. Nevertheless, given all that we know, and what we can anticipate based on information from local, state and national agencies ... we believe this is the most prudent course of action at this time.”
