Health Information
Case Monitoring
Case Monitoring – Online Resources
The district launched dual resources for our school community to monitor positive COVID-19 cases within our schools and among our school populations. These include the Positive COVID-19 Case Dashboard and the district’s cumulative COVID-19 case list, which has been in place since the start of the school year. Families are invited to review this short video, provided to help families better understand the resources.
Know the Three "Cs"
Know the Three “Cs” – Case Investigation | Contact Tracing | Cleaning and Disinfecting
Per the Pennsylvania Department of Education, "If case investigations, contact tracing, and cleaning and disinfecting can be accomplished in a faster time frame, the length of closure time may be shortened." Once complete, the school’s 14-day rolling total (found on the Positive COVID-19 Case Dashboard) resets to 0. The district has developed the attached infographic to better explain this process. The Dashboard also notes the date on which the most recent all-inclusive cleaning and disinfecting was performed. This process is scheduled as a preventative measure whenever new cases occur, to help avoid the necessity to close a school.
Travel Reminder
Travel Reminder
The commonwealth’s travel restrictions reflect the CDC’s new quarantine timeline guidance. Pennsylvanians who are returning home after travel are required to either quarantine for 10 days without testing, or to quarantine for 7 days with a negative test on or after day 5 of quarantine. Please note, out of an abundance of caution, our health and safety plan protocols require all students and employees to refrain from in-person instruction and school-sponsored athletics and activities during the commonwealth’s travel quarantine period regardless of age.
