Parkites should plan on four weeks off of school for Corona Virus
Today the state of Utah mandated that schools are closed for two weeks. The problem in Park City is that there are three weeks until Spring Break. A rational person would not take two weeks off of school, come back for one, and then go on break. My hope is schools are back in session …
