Prospects  may be dimming for reopening school campuses as previously scheduled for April 6 because the novel coronavirus pandemic hasn't reached its peak, the Natrona County Health Officer told the school district's board of trustees on Wednesday...

As of Sunday, there were no confirmed cases of the virus in Natrona County.

State law prohibits public employees of releasing the names of those accused of sex crimes until they are arraigned in district court.

There are numerous cases filed in Natrona County each year involving sex crimes, and Wyoming Statute 6-2-319 plays a role in each of them.

The Natrona County School District has been working on a 10-component safety and security plan for years.

An unidentified person reported on the Safe2Tell website at 9:20 a.m. that there was a suspicious person with a weapon near Natrona County High School.

School district spokeswoman Tanya Southerland said the website is a work in progress.

The school district said the primary responsibility in protecting a child’s health and school attendance always resides with the parent or guardian.

Officials say it will take at least two months to come up with a policy that will then be presented to the school board for a final decision.
