COVID-19 Resources: March 20, 2020

As COVID-19 continues to impact us all, here are some resources for parents/guardians to learn more about the Coronavirus Disease 2019.

The first resource is a link to the Alaska Department of Education and Early Development website which is a great source for information as it develops in Alaska.

The second link is guidance for parents/guardians trying to talk to children about COVID-19.

As you talk to children, please remind them to practice social distancing outside the house by staying a snow machine’s length away from other people (6 feet).

By putting safety first and sharing knowledge, we protect each other!
