Positive Covid Case 11-10-20

Dear BEA Community:

We had a positive Covid case at Wingate Elementary School in the 5th grade confirmed today.  The parents of the students that need to quarantine have been notified.  We also had one staff member who had to quarantine as well.
To all of our students who currently have Covid, I want to wish you a speedy recovery.  Again, I want to thank the parents of the students who have had to quarantine. Overwhelmingly, you have been supportive and it is greatly appreciated.  I also want to thank the students who currently are quarantined for your patience and flexibility.  
At this time, while I continue to monitor the situation with our Board, administrative team, and our school nurses, I plan to keep all schools open.  Should events change, I will, as always, keep you informed.
Scott V. Graham
