Dear Parents/Guardians:

The District was informed of the following positive cases of COVID-19 within the school community:

  • One high school student, who was last at school on May 3rd. Based on the last date of attendance and the positive test date, no school contact tracing was required.
  • Three elementary school students, all of whom were last at school on May 7th. Based on the last dates of attendance and the positive test dates, no school contact tracing was required.

Please note that three of the above cases are connected to a single exposure that occurred outside of school and not due to spread within the schools. Please be assured that schools and buses are thoroughly cleaned regularly and the in-person learning environment remains safe for students and staff.
