Schools close doors until at least April 27
​

​The month of April will be a quiet one in Clinton County. 
                All three area school districts – Lathrop R-II, Clinton County R-III and East Buchanan C-I – have announced that they’ve pushed back possible return dates should the COVID-19 pandemic ease up in the coming weeks. 
                Lathrop R-II has identified their earliest return date as Tuesday, April 28, while East Buchanan has cancelled school until at least Monday, April 27. Clinton County R-III will remain closed through at least Friday, April 24. 
The extended cancellations come as Clinton County experienced its second and third confirmed cases of COVID-19 over the weekend. The Clinton County Health Department confirmed Saturday, March 28, that one patient was female in her teens who had traveled recently to a location with a high rate of the virus, while the other patient is a woman in her 30s. Both had entered voluntary self-isolation, according to the CCHD ....

The order urged residents to continue to avoid any public event with 10 people or more and to maintain social distancing practices.
