Dear Parents, Guardians, Staff, and Community Members,

Earlier today, we received notification that two additional individuals at Daisy Ingraham Elementary School and an individual at Westbrook Middle School tested positive for Covid-19.

Case #1 at Daisy: This individual was last present in-person on February 24th. As a result of this case, Ms. Cote’s preschool class will transition to remote learning effective March 1st-March 5th. The class will return to in-person mode on Monday, March 8th.

Case #2 at Daisy: This individual was last present on February 25th. As a result of this case, Ms. Fair’s 4th grade class will transition to remote learning effective March 1st-March 5th. The class will return to in-person mode on Monday, March 8th.

Case #1 at WMS: This individual has not been in-person in our district for an extended period of time. There are no close contacts or quarantine requirements associated with students or staff.

We are in the process of determining close contacts. As always, we are working closely with our local department of health. All students and staff required to quarantine will be contacted this afternoon and provided with instructions per CDC and Connecticut guidelines for schools.

An update in other recent cases: The quarantine period ends this weekend for students and staff associated with the 7th grade case and the 3rd grade case. The 7th grade will return to in-person learning on Monday, March 1st. Ms. Fischer’s 3rd grade class will transition back to in-person learning on Monday, March 1st.

As always, thank you for your continued support and understanding. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out.

Sincerely,

Kristina J. Martineau, Ed.D.
