Press ReleaseDear Westport Families and Staff,
In our efforts to remain transparent with reports of positive Covid-19 cases associated with our schools, we will continue to provide these updates as information is confirmed. As of the time I am writing to you this morning, we have 15 newly confirmed cases of COVID-19 from the vacation week. The reports came from the following schools:
Coleytown Elementary School - 1
Greens Farms Elementary School - 1
Kings Highway Elementary School - 1
Saugatuck Elementary School - 1
Bedford Middle School - 2
Staples High School - 9
As a reminder, families are asked to report positive COVID-19 cases of students using our reporting voicemail or email regardless of whether the students are in remote or hybrid models of instruction. Please follow this link for more information on reporting.
Additionally, we want to remind families that students with pending Covid-19 tests should not return to school until receiving negative results. This approach is critical in helping us continue minimizing the potential for transmission in our schools.
Respectfully,
Thomas Scarice
Superintendent of Schools
