COVID Case at NCS

Dear NCS Families and Staff,

Earlier today, Ontario and Steuben Counties confirmed that 4 students and 1 staff member in our High School had tested positive for COVID-19. Each of the students attended school at least one day this week, while the staff member was last at work on Friday, February 12.

After completing the contact tracing process, the decision was made to quarantine 9 additional students and 1 staff member. Additionally, we initiated a 48-hour “pause” on Boys Varsity Basketball as a precautionary measure. At this point, we anticipate that the season will resume on Saturday, February 27, when our Big Green athletes travel to Midlakes.  

I know that receiving communications like this can be unsettling. However, I want to assure you that after thoroughly investigating each of the COVID-19 cases, we found no evidence that spread has taken place at school. Instead, our contact tracing has provided reassurance that our preventative measures involving masking, distancing, hand washing, and disinfecting are working.

It is our collective responsibility to care for our school community, and we are asking that you continue to diligently monitor how your child is feeling each morning. If they are under the weather, please make sure to keep them home, and reach out to a medical professional for guidance.

As always, please do not hesitate to call or email (585-374-7901, mfrahm@naplescsd.org) if you have any questions or concerns about our safety protocols.

Hoping this finds you healthy and well.

Matt
