Discussions and concerns around the Coronavirus outbreak and practicing social distancing can be stressful and impact our mental health and wellbeing. It’s natural to feel a range of emotions, such as stress, worry, anxiety, boredom, or low mood. Please know that everyone will react in their own way. Chino Valley Unified School District is committed to doing all we can do to support our students and families during this stressful and uncertain time.
