No COVID-19 Cases Reported Today for Westport Public Schools

Westport Superintendent Thomas Scarice: 

Dear Westport Families and Staff,

Since our last update yesterday, we have no newly reported cases of Covid-19 associated with our schools.

We ask that families and staff continue to report positive cases associated with our schools over the February recess. (Using home tests or lab results) Please follow this link for more information on reporting. Updates will be provided midweek and the weekend before our return to school on February 28th.

Upon return from the winter break families will be able to obtain at home test kits for students from our school health offices. We have a number on hand already and learned today that we will receive a significant inventory of additional tests next week. Families will be given the option of picking tests up from the school or having them sent home in student backpacks.

Please enjoy the week ahead whether traveling or staying local. It is a nice time for everyone to recharge for the remaining weeks of winter.

Respectfully,

 

Thomas Scarice

Superintendent of Schools
