Dear Parents and Families,

This afternoon we were notified that a student has tested positive for COVID-19.  We will continue to communicate with the Orleans County Health Department, as we have with all positive cases.    I can share that the student who tested positive was last present on district property on January 20, 2021.   Per privacy guidelines, no addition personally identifiable information can be shared about this individual.

Contact tracing was completed in collaboration with the Orleans County Health Department.  As a result, some students and staff members were placed under quarantine by the Orleans County Health Department.  We will continue to support the Health Department by providing any required information for their process and will adhere to their directives.

We are committed to providing our students and staff with a safe and healthy environment. Our building will continue to be thoroughly cleaned and disinfected. I continue to be proud of our staff and students for adhering to the safety protocols we have in place.  Our cleaning, social distancing, barriers and face covering are effective in preventing the spread of the virus on our campus.  I ask that you please continue to wear face masks, maintain social distancing and wash your hands frequently. 

I will continue to inform you of any positive cases as we are notified.  School will continue as scheduled.

Thank you for your understanding and ongoing cooperation with our COVID-19 prevention policies and procedures as we work to help protect our students, staff and families.  As always, if you have questions, I can be contacted directly at:
