The Southwest Vermont Supervisory Union was notified earlier today of a positive test of COVID-19 within the Mt. Anthony Union High School learning communities. In keeping with Vermont Department of Health and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guidelines, our team took immediate steps to isolate the situation. We are working closely with local and state officials to ensure our community remains safe and healthy.
After meeting with the Vermont Department of Health, all close contacts were determined and notified. Our trained maintenance staff will engage in a thorough sanitation process of all surfaces within the affected spaces. The Mt. Anthony Union High School building will remain open for hybrid in-person learning. Those affected have been contacted.
These are all of the details we are permitted to release at this time. Please continue to check svsu.org and our social media accounts for the most up-to-date information. Please be assured that we continue to plan for a safe and healthy school environment by implementing best practices in alignment with guidance from the Vermont Department of Health and the Vermont Agency of Education.
Stay safe and healthy,
James R. Culkeen
Southwest Vermont Supervisory Union
