Dear parents and guardians,
Vancouver Public Schools is closing all its schools Monday, March 16, through Friday, April 24. Gov. Jay Inslee has directed all Washington state public schools to close to help our state and nation combat the spread of the coronavirus (COVID-19).
We take any decision to close schools very seriously, recognizing that closures can pose difficulties for families and disrupt children’s education.
Please review the following important information:
Effective at the end of school today and throughout the closure, ALL athletics and morning/afternoon/evening and weekend school activities will be canceled.
