A Few Updates

January 10, 2021

Dear Families:

I hope you had a great weekend.  I offer several updates.

Weekend COVID Cases

1 CCHS adult

1 Alcott adult

There were no school close contacts.

District COVID Data Dashboard

The District Data Dashboard is updated as of yesterday morning.  With these two new cases, the total number of cases since we reopened is now 91.

Concord Carlisle COVID Data

The MDPH weekly numbers were released in the community report on January 7, 2021.  Both Concord and Carlisle remain in the yellow range.

Remote Learning and Travel

We have had a number of requests to learn remotely from various locations outside of the primary residence in Concord, Carlisle, or Boston.  While we understand the question, we just simply cannot handle more variables for students to learn remotely for various time periods from various locations.   Homeschooling is an option for these situations if you opt to still consider them.

Asymptomatic Pooled Testing

The Joint School Committees will discuss the plan proposed by DPH and DESE on Tuesday night.  The agenda is posted here.  Other agenda items include budget development and updates on our objectives to hire more faculty of color.

Vaccine Distribution at CCHS

First responders will be vaccinated in the CCHS parking lot on Thursday and Friday after school and during the evening as well as all day Saturday.

Have a great evening.

Best,

Laurie
