CLARKSVILLE, Tenn (CLARKSVILLENOW) – Students at Moore Magnet Elementary will be dismissed at 11 a.m. on Thursday, March 12, due to a suspected, but unconfirmed, case of Coronavirus.

Preceding the announcement, Moore Magnet was placed on soft lockdown, meaning that no visitors were allowed in the building and students remained in their classrooms. PreK classes were also canceled.

“This is out of an abundance of caution as we await further information from the Montgomery County Health Department concerning best practices on a suspected exposure to the Coronavirus,” said a email released by CMCSS.

Before release, students will be provided with a sack lunch. Students will arrive home four hours earlier than normal.

Bus drivers will follow their normal drop-off protocol, returning students to the school if required. Parents and guardians can pick up their children at the school if they are not delivered home.
