Milford, Ohio – Milford has canceled classes at their Meadowview Elementary for 3rd and 4th grade until next Monday.
The District currently lists 441 students and staff as quarantined both from contact within and outside of the schools.
Below is their announcement:
Out of an abundance of caution, we made the decision to cancel classes for Meadowview Elementary School’s third and fourth grade. The third and fourth graders will learn remotely the rest of this week and through next week. They will return to school Monday, November 16.
We decided to close the third and fourth grade classrooms because there have been multiple students and staff in those grade levels who have tested positive for COVID-19. At this time there is not a need to close the rest of the building. We are monitoring student and staff health closely.
Our COVID-19 dashboard is continually updated to reflect current positive cases district-wide and to show the numbers of students in quarantine. (The COVID-19 dashboard is on our website: https://www.milfordschools.org/…/r…/covid-case-reporting-61/)
We have seen an increase in cases over the weekend to now. We have a relatively large number of students who are currently quarantined. The majority of the quarantined high school students listed in the chart are quarantined due to exposure from a teammate on an athletic team. There are also students and staff district wide who are under quarantine from exposure not related to school; for example, exposure to a positive close contact who is a family member.
