Superintendent of Schools Thomas Scarice today issued the following update to school families:
Dear Westport Families and Staff,
As of the time I am writing to you this evening we have 6 newly confirmed cases of COVID-19 in the following schools:
- Greens Farms Elementary School – 2
- Staples High School – 4
Today’s reports of positive COVID-19 cases have led to additional quarantines of staff and students at Staples High School. Those impacted have been notified by school and District officials.
As a reminder, families can report positive of COVID-19 cases of students using our report phone line voicemail or email. Please follow this link for more information.
I want to thank Mr. Marpe, First Selectman, for his continued support of our efforts to address COVID-19 related issues in the schools. His message to the community earlier this afternoon is greatly appreciated.
Respectfully,
Thomas Scarice
Superintendent of Schools
