Superintendent: No COVID-19 Cases in the District Today
From Superintendent Thomas Scarice Dear Westport Families and Staff,
I am pleased to report that we have no newly confirmed cases of Covid-19 associated with our schools today. While this is good news, I ask that we remain vigilant and not relax any efforts to keep the virus at bay in our schools.
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
