Good afternoon Red Mill families,
Today we learned two members of our school community are confirmed positive and four others are considered presumed positive for COVID-19.
Following current recommendations by the Pennsylvania Department of Health and Pennsylvania Department of Education for school closures, Red Mill Elementary will be closed for in-person instruction effective tomorrow, Tuesday, April 20, and unless circumstances change and you are notified otherwise, will reopen for in-person instruction on Monday, April 26.
What happens now:
- All students and staff will work from home and follow a Distance Learning schedule on April 20, 21, 22, and 23, 2021.
- Meal distribution will not take place at Red Mill during the closure. Families are encouraged to visit one of the District's other Grab-and-Go meal locations.
- Close contacts are being notified by phone and may also be contacted by the Pennsylvania Department of Health. The District website provides additional information and guidance for families whose child is quarantined.
- Classrooms and any affected areas will undergo any additional required sanitation and cleaning in accordance with CDC, PDE, and PA DOH guidance.
What you can do:
For your reference, the District has established a COVID-19 Tracker to share data on active cases, quarantine numbers, and total cases impacting our District. The tracker may be viewed at:
