2nd school district cancels classes (TX and OH) - Solon closes two schools Thursday as a precaution

SOLON, Ohio -- Solon Middle School and Parkside Elementary School are closed Thursday as a precaution.

An email sent to parents by the school district said they learned a Solon Middle School staff member may have traveled aboard the same airplane, though not the same flight, as the Dallas nurse diagnosed with Ebola.

In the email, the district explains they learned about the situation late in the day. Since then, they have been working with public health officials. The closing of both schools is a willing precaution to allow both buildings to be disinfected.

At first blush it seems downright silly.

But if I had a child in that school I would be glad for it to be closed and disinfected.
