WATERBURY, Conn. — As Waterbury continues to see a spike in COVID-19 cases, Crosby High School is moving to distance learning.
In a statement, Monday night, Waterbury Director of Communications Sujata Wycoff said all Crosby High school students will begin distance learning through Wednesday, October 7.
The decision was made with consultation of the Waterbury City Health Department after a student at the school tested positive for COVID-19.
Wycoff wrote the administration has planned for this type of situation and was prepared to make the immediate transition.
The COVID positive student was told to stay at home to self-isolate for 10 days. The student will need medical documentation before returning to in-person classes, said Wycoff in a written statement.
Classes will begin Thursday, October 8, added Wycoff. In the meantime, the school will be cleaned and disinfected as per protocol.
