Dear Families,
The District was notified of forty-one (41) positive cases of COVID-19: nine (9) at the Indiana Area High School, sixteen (16) at the Indiana Area Junior High School, five (5) at East Pike Elementary, six (6) at Ben Franklin Elementary, two (2) at Eisenhower Elementary, and three (3) at Horace Mann Elementary. Four (4) out of the forty-one (41) positive cases will be attributed to the District’s 14-day rolling average. The Department of Health (DOH) worked with the school nurses and administration and concluded that zero (0) additional students/staff members are required to be quarantined. Any questions regarding quarantines should be directed to the Department of Health at 1-877-PA-HEALTH (1-877-724-3258).
I want to personally thank you all again for your patience, understanding, and cooperation as we work through this pandemic. As I mentioned before, it is times like this when community matters most, and I am proud to serve this community. As always, I invite you to please visit our COVID dashboard at www.iasd.cc for up-to-date information relating to the number of positive cases and quarantines in the District. Additionally, you will find a copy of all the letters we have sent throughout the year on this page as well as some additional resources and information from the Department of Health and/or Department of Education.
Respectfully,
Mr. Michael J. Vuckovich
IASD Superintendent
