Good morning.

We know you don’t normally hear from us on Saturdays. But these aren’t normal times, so we thought we’d send you a quick update on the coronavirus outbreak.

On Friday, the state’s four largest school districts: Los Angeles Unified, San Diego Unified, Fresno Unified and Long Beach Unified all announced they’ll close starting Monday, as health officials in Los Angeles confirmed eight more cases in the county.

Los Angeles Unified said its schools will be closed for at least two weeks, while San Diego Unified schools will be closed until at least April 6.

“There is evidence the virus is already present in the communities we serve, and our efforts now must be aimed at preventing its spread,” the districts’ two superintendents, Austin Beutner of Los Angeles and Cindy Marten of San Diego said in a joint statement.
