Gloucester, Rockport schools to close for two weeksBy Michael Cronin Staff Writer
The Gloucester and Rockport public school districts have announced they will close all schools from Monday, March 16 through Friday, March 27.The districts made the decision as the state continues to deliberate on the most effective actions toward eliminating the spread of the novel coronavirus disease COVID-19.
“They are cancelled for two weeks,” said Mayor Sefatia Romeo Theken, an ex-officio member of the School Committee, explaining that the closure is not because of any presumed cases. “I don’t even have to shut the schools down … But because we want to do an extensive cleaning, there is no way that can happen while children are in school.”
