School Closures Sweep Idaho, Treasure Valley

In the wake of all of the news surrounding Coronavirus--or, COVID-19--in the Treasure Valley, many announcements were made concerning school. While a health crisis like this is NEVER ideal, with Spring Break coming up, having a built-in week away from the school buildings is ideal. However, after Governor Brad Little said that each school district should decide on their own whether or not to close, it appears that many school districts want more time with students away and at home.
