Dear Families, Guardians and Districts,
The Richardson School will continue to follow the previous guidance provided by Governor Evers. This guidance mandates schools, public or private, close to students no later than 5:00 pm Wednesday, March 18th. This remains true for our locations in Beloit, Brookfield and West Allis.
For our school in Madison, we will follow the orders and guidance provided today by the Public Health Officer of Madison and Dane County. This new guidance will close our Madison location to students effective immediately.
Regardless of location, we are committed to developing a virtual education platform for access by our students and families. We will continue to provide updates as those items are developed.
Sincerely,
Kevin Silkey
Executive Director
