Positive Covid Case at High School 11-19-20

Dear BEA Community:Today we had a student at the high school test positive for Covid-19.  All parents of the students that need to be quarantined have been contacted.  No adults are required to be quarantined.  We have had two cases at the middle school so far this year and this is the first case at the high school.  As of now, I do not plan on closing any additional schools.  Later today, middle and high school students and parents will be receiving a message from me reminding students to take home their laptops and materials daily in the event we would have additional cases that would necessitate closing school.  But as I stated, as of today, there are no plans to close other schools in the district and we are still planning on reopening Wingate Elementary on Tuesday, December 1.
I will keep you updated as events unfold and as always, thank you for your support.
Sincerely,
Scott V. Graham
Superintendent
