The following two messages from Superintendent Guntlow were emailed to all Ichabod Crane families on Monday, March 8.

Middle School Positive Case Notification (Emailed at 2:00 PM)
Good Afternoon,
This afternoon we were informed that a Middle School staff member has tested positive for COVID-19. The staff member was last on campus on Wednesday, March 3. As a result, one Middle School classroom has been placed under mandatory quarantine.
At this time, we have identified and contacted all staff members and families whose students came in close contact with the positive case while on campus. Transportation was not affected by this case and there was no impact to the Primary School or High School.
If you were not already contacted directly by the district, your child was not a close contact and there is no further action needed on your part.
Thank you as always for your patience and understanding as we continue to navigate these challenges together.

Superintendent of Schools

Good Afternoon,
I am writing to let you know that we were informed on Sunday, March 7, that our High School Girls Varsity Basketball Team was exposed to a positive COVID-19 case at their away game on Saturday, February 27. The positive individual was a student-athlete on the competing school’s basketball team.
As a result, our Girls Varsity Basketball Team and their coaches were notified and placed under mandatory quarantine. There is no impact on any other students or staff in the district.
Thank you, as always, for your partnership and support.
Suzanne Guntlow
Superintendent of Schools
