I'm a FISD teacher and the admin sent out an email Saturday that said if you travel to China, Korea, & Italy over spring break you have to stay home for 14 days after you get back. I checked tickets to Rome immediately but my wife said no.

Would they make you use sick/personal days?

When I was at Garland ISD, I went on my honeymoon the week before finals and only had 4.5 days of that time left. They docked me .5 of a day in pay despite me getting it signed off on by my department head and my principal.

Italy just quarantined the entire country so that was a good choice.

Carroll ISD is doing the same thing and just announced that students that travel to those countries have to get screened before returning to school.

If you haven't seen this dashboard from John Hopkins, check it out. It shows confirmed cases world wide.

I live in Allen and had heard about the Frisco patient this morning, so being a data person, I went to check if this had been registered yet and I don't see Frisco, but I do see a case for McKinney. I assuming this is the same case and just mis-reported.

I currently have 72 state personnel days saved up so making me use my days isn't a deal breaker. I've got a corps buddy at Aviano AFB in Italy right now and they're on week 3 of no school. No big deal except they just closed to ski area so now they actually have to stay home during the day.

Spent my lunch hour stocking up on canned goods and freezer stuff. The lines were nuts. Nobody going crazy but definitely a tenseness in the air. Really strange. Be careful out there folks.

At the rate this is going I would be shocked if any schools reopen next week, kind of expecting to hear something from Austin in the next day or two mandating closures.
