Allegheny County COVID-19 Community Level HIGH
Dear ECS Families,
Allegheny County’s COVID Community Level has changed from MEDIUM to HIGH. In accordance with the district’s previous communications, the following will occur effective immediately:
ECS is a closed campus. Outside individuals are not permitted to enter the buildings, and parents/guardians who are picking up or dropping off their students outside of normal dismissal and arrival times must buzz in and wait for instructions from the office manager.
All indoor gatherings are shifting to outdoor events.
Increased outdoor education is highly encouraged.
All students and staff are asked to mask when indoors. Masks will be abundantly available for those who need one.
ECS also strongly encourages families with students ages 5–11 to talk to their pediatrician and receive the booster vaccination that was approved by the CDC for use starting on Friday, May 20.
Thank you for your continued flexibility and understanding.
Sincerely,
Dr. James Doyle
Chief Operating Officer
