They announced this weekend that the boys' school will be closed until April 20. I think they are trying to arrange some kind of online/distance education for the kids, but no specific details on that yet. At the boys' school, all the kids are issued Chromebook laptops, and I suspect most families have stable internet access at home.
James's state gymnastics meet which was supposed to be this past weekend was cancelled (well, postponed at least), though he was perhaps even more disappointed that the Pi Day celebration at UB was also cancelled. Matthew's coding classes are going online. :)
Just today the governor ordered all gyms to close, so Matthew can't swim at the Y for a while, and Mike is VERY disappointed that he can't go to his gym and lift weights for a while. He's been working with a personal trainer and making great progress.
Matthew made up a schedule for the days away from school that includes reading, online math, online Spanish, and other activities, and he diligently followed it. He and James also did a great job of cleaning up the playroom today. So, a pretty good start! The weather is gradually starting to improve, so it will be nice that hopefully they can get some outdoor playtime (although they claim it's no fun since their friends can't come over). Elsa will probably be getting more walks, since we're all supposed to be staying home! We took a little drive today to drop off some tax paperwork and put gas in the car, which did not involve being near other people. :)
