Clarendon fourth graders have been quarantined at home today after an individual who had been in contact with those students tested positive for the COVID-19 virus, according CCISD Superintendent Jarod Bellar.
The superintendent said he was informed about the positive test late Thursday afternoon, October 8, and decided to quarantine that grade level to be safe.
“We wanted to be pro-active and see if anyone developed symptoms over the long weekend,” Bellar told the Enterprise.
CCISD students will be out of class next Monday for a scheduled holiday, and Bellar said the school says anyone not exhibiting symptoms on Tuesday is welcome to return to class.
CCISD personnel disinfected areas of the elementary school Thursday evening and again Friday morning, Bellar said.
There are 25 students enrolled in Clarendon’s fourth grade.
