Important Information Regarding COVID-19: CVHS, GES, PES and Pierce

November 23, 2021

Good Afternoon ConVal Community,

We were informed today of four positive cases of COVID-19: one at ConVal High School, one at Greenfield Elementary School (GES), one at Peterborough Elementary School (PES), and one at Pierce Elementary School in Bennington.

As soon as we were informed of the cases, we began our thorough 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. To learn more about COVID-19, please visit these websites:
