The Johnson County School Board called a special meeting Monday night and the main topic of discussion was how the district is dealing with the COVID-19 pandemic.

The district has closed all schools until Friday, April 3^rd, when they are expected to re-evaluate the situation in the community.

Wagner said all but two school districts in the state had closed because of the coronavirus concerns as of Monday’s meeting.

The plan for Johnson County Schools, at this time, is to remain closed through April 3^rd, and resume classes on Monday, April 6^th, but the situation is constantly changing and will be evaluated as the deadline gets closer, according to discussions at the meeting.
