Superintendent: 4 New COVID-19 Cases in 2 Schools

Superintendent Thomas Scarice

Dear Westport Families and Staff,

As mentioned in our report this past Friday, we will report positive Covid-19 cases on a weekly basis unless additional reporting becomes necessary. Given the long weekend we felt it important to provide an update this evening. 

We have 4 newly confirmed cases of Covid-19 from Saturday through today. The reports came from the following schools:

  • Greens Farms Elementary School - 2

  • Long Lots Elementary School - 2 

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
