Economic Security Corporation’s responses to managing coronavirus risks
March 18, 2020
Economic Security Corporation of Southwest Area has decided to follow the decision of all public schools in Barton, Jasper, Newton and McDonald counties and close their Head Start/Early Head Start centers until April 6.
Based on current, available information from federal officials, state government and local health considerations, they believe this is the responsible thing to do. It is the best way to support the community and health care system, while protecting children, families and staff.
Staff will be in contact with families during the closure to offer up-to-date community resource information and virtual learning opportunities. They will continue to assess the situation and reopen when possible.
A healthy Barton County requires great community news.
