Good Evening Glover Families and Staff,
I just got a call from the Vermont Department of Health, and we have a positive case. I will begin contact tracing tomorrow and will notify those who are considered close contacts. For tomorrow though, we need to do a short-term closure to keep everyone safe.
All students should work on their short-term closure packets that were sent home earlier in the school year. Parents, please remember that your child's teacher will reach out either by phone or through email, and you must respond so that your child isn't marked absent for the day.
On short-term closure days we offer free meals. Any family who would like to pick up a meal from the school between 11:00-12:00 tomorrow must call the school between 8:00-9:00 am.
School will resume on Monday, March 29th for anyone who is not a close contact. We're sorry for the short notice. Everyone have a great weekend and stay safe.

Today, we have been notified of a positive COVID case in the Lake Region school community. After a conference call with the VT Department of Health, I am pleased to report that we have no people at Lake Region who have been deemed to be close contacts. The Health Department representative acknowledged that the safety precautions that we have in place played a key role in our not having any "close contacts".
