Due to new positive COVID-19 cases emerging on a daily basis, the BBHCSD implemented a mask mandate for all students and staff in grades Kindergarten through 5th, effective immediately on September 1st until further notice. On September 15th, BBHMS implemented a mask mandate for all students and staff until further notice. District leaders will continue to monitor data and local trends and make decisions based upon current cases.
As our school family continues to deal with new positive cases of COVID-19 among our students and staff, the District is compelled to be prepared to safely deal with individuals or classes who have become exposed. At the present time, the BBHCSD has two paths to follow upon learning that a positive case has surfaced in one of our school buildings, and how we handle incidents of exposure.
The District encourages you to review this
Spread Mitigation protocol, which has been posted on the
COVID-19 Resources Page of our website, so that you can see the difference between the two decision-making pathways the BBHCSD leadership will follow to keep our students and staff safe in the event of positive cases in any of our buildings.
To reiterate once again, the District's primary objective is to keep students and staff learning in-person. However, the stark realities of trying to do so, recognizing that positive cases are intermittently emerging, require District leaders to be prepared to keep students learning as safely as possible. We ask for your continued patience and flexibility.
Thank you for your support of the Brecksville-Broadview Heights City Schools.
