Shortcuts

Wednesday, December 1, 2021

Greetings ECS Community,

I’m writing to let you know that, as required by New York State, we will be conducting two (2) lockdown drills sometime between December 3rd and December 22nd.

We will start these drills with a shelter-in-place drill and clearly tell students it is a drill so we do not create unnecessary stress. During the shelter-in-place, staff will remind students of our procedures, so students will be prepared when we move into the lockdown portion of the drills.

Sincerely,

Robert Miller, Superintendent

ECS Updated COVID Numbers – 11/30/2021

Dear ECS Community,

I’m sharing updated information related to how COVID is continuing to impact ECS.

Last week on Tuesday (11/23) we had 13 active cases of COVID; 10 students and 3 staff members.

Today (11/30) we have 15 active cases of COVID; 13 students and 2 staff.

Please know, that the vast majority of individuals that have reported to the school as testing positive for COVID, have not been on campus since 11/12 through and including our Thanksgiving Break. Therefore, the number of people that will need to quarantine has been minimized. As of today, we are down to 19 individuals that are on quarantine. This number will fluctuate day to day as individuals may still need to be contacted or may be coming out of quarantine sometime later this week.

We will strive to keep you informed as we move forward.

Thank you,

Bob Miller

Meal registration for days the school is remote or a child is out due to COVID.

As we continue to feel the impact of COVID-19 at the school, there may be times that ECS will need to switch to an all remote model for some or all students.  In addition, we will have situations where students will be required to stay home due to having COVID or because they are being quarantined.

Through all of this, ECS will do its best to continue to run a nutritional program to provide daily meals to our students by providing free meals whether they are in the school building or at home. Starting Monday, November 29, 2021, we will deliver meals to resident families ONLY if they indicate that they would like them.  Likewise, we will make meals available for pick-up by non-resident families ONLY if they indicate that they would like them.  We are doing this avoid waste.

If you would like your child / children to receive meals whenever the district is on remote instruction, your child/children has COVID or your child/children are required to quarantine, you can register by completing and submitting the form found at the link the following link:  https://forms.office.com/r/4UpLCbZ9kb

Thank you!
