Important Information Regarding COVID-19: AES, CVHS, GBS, PES, and SMS

December 17, 2021

Good Afternoon ConVal Community,

Yesterday we were informed of six positive cases of COVID-19. One was at Antrim Elementary School (AES), three were at ConVal High School (CVHS), and two were at Great Brook School (GBS). Today we were informed of an additional ten cases. Three were at CVHS, four were at GBS, one was at PES, and two were at South Meadow School (SMS).

As soon as we were informed of the cases, we began the process of identifying anyone who may have had close contact, which follows the most recent guidance from the New Hampshire Department of Health and Human Services (NH DHHS).

The individuals who were identified as having close contact have been notified. Because the school communities continue to implement the mitigation strategies outlined in our Reopening and Recovery Plan, there is no need to change our instructional mode at this point in time.
