Hawaii State Department of Education says public schools will remain closed through April 30, 2020. Schools Superintendent Dr. Christina Kishimoto released the information in a “Letter to Parents and Guardians” sent out Tuesday, March 24. That is consistent with Governor Ige’s Emergency Proclamation issued Monday, May 23, 2020 that everyone in the state is on a “stay at home, work at home” order, through April 30. There are exceptions, as detailed in the order.
There’s a summary of Gov. Ige’s comments in a previous story on this site, as well as a link to the Emergency Proclamation.
The State Department of Education COVID-19 updates may be found at the DOE web site.
Students are currently on an extended Spring Break that was scheduled to go through April 7, 2020.
