Dear Staff, Parents, and Community Members:

This letter is to inform you that we were notified this morning that a member of the Ella P. Burr community has tested positive for COVID-19.  As with every positive COVID-19 case, the district is working directly with Maine DOE/CDC to determine the infectious period and contact tracing requirements, based on the impacted individual’s last day of attendance before developing symptoms or testing positive.  Those who are impacted will be contacted and asked to quarantine.

As this is an isolated incident, Ella P. Burr School will continue with in-person instruction.  We continue to ask all families and staff to monitor students for any symptoms.  All individuals should contact a health care provider if they develop symptoms.

General questions regarding COVID-19 can be answered by calling 1-866-811-5695, you can text your zip code to 898-211, or email at info@211maine.org or by calling your primary care provider.  More information can be found at www.maine/gov/dhhs/coronavirus or www.cdc.gov/coronavirus. 

Questions regarding student health can be directed to Jeri Davis, RN by calling 794-6711 or by emailing:  jdavis@rsu67.org.  Questions regarding scheduling or instruction should be directed to Ella P. Burr School at 794-3014.
