Superintendent: First Week without COVID-19 Cases “a Milestone” for Westport Schools

Dear Westport Families and Staff,

As we end this first week in May, I am thrilled to announce that we once again had no newly reported cases of Covid-19 in our schools. This news marks a milestone for our district in that it is the first full week without any reported cases of Covid-19 in our schools since the start of this year.

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 in-person 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
