Staples Football Overwhelmed By St. Joe's
The rain Friday night wasn't the only thing dampening Wreckers Fans in their match-up with number 1 ranked powerhouse St. Joseph's of Trumbull, who prevailed, 35-14.
The Wreckers fought to the end, getting near the end zone twice in the second half but failed to get across. Quarterback Ryan Thompson and receiver Nick Armentano gave the fans bright moments by providing both Staples touchdown's.
The Wreckers travel to Cheshire next Friday and return home to face Wilbur Cross on October 1st.

Superintendent: 2 New Cases in 2 Schools
Friday’s totals from the Westport Public Schools COVID-19 DashboardWestport Superintendent of SchoolsDear Westport Families and Staff,
As we close out the week I want to remind everyone that we have moved to more frequent updates of positive Covid-19 cases associated with our schools. Specifically, we anticipate sending reports at the end of the day Mondays through Fridays. Weekend reports will be sent along as needed.
We have 2 newly confirmed cases of Covid-19 from yesterday and today. The reports came from the following schools:
Greens Farms Elementary School - 1
Coleytown Middle School - 1
Please remember that families are asked to report positive Covid-19 cases of students using our reporting voicemail or email. 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 minimize the potential for transmission in our schools.
Respectfully,
Thomas Scarice
Superintendent of Schools
