Here's a running list of cancellations, modifications and closings as they relate to Oswego High School, as a result of COVID-19 concerns.
Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker announced at his daily press conference that the stay-at-home order will be extended through May 31 due to concerns of the spread of COVID-19. The previous end date was originally April 30 but was pushed back because of how quickly COVID-19 could spread.
Threatening writing containing the first names of four individuals was found in two boys restrooms at Oswego High School on Tuesday, Sept. 25. The Oswego Police Department, with the help of the school, is investigating the situation.
These emails come after Governor JB Pritzker extended the Stay at Home order on March 31 through the end of April. As a result, all school buildings will have to remain closed until April 30. Many events, including spring sports and prom were slated to take place over the next month, but the closure of schools has forced their cancelations.
Yesterday at 11 a.m., police arrested the Oswego High School student responsible for writing the “kill list” in two boys’ bathrooms last month.
