Confirmed Case of COVID at DMS

November 24, 2020

Dear Families,

Today, November 24, 2020, the Middle Country School District was notified that there is a confirmed case of COVID-19 at Dawnwood Middle School.  The case was last in the building on Thursday November 19, 2020.

We share this information with you as part of our ongoing effort to keep our community informed of any areas of concern.  Please know that due to privacy laws, we are unable to provide any more details.

In accordance with our reopening plan, we have been in contact with the Suffolk County Department of Health and we are assisting them in contact tracing efforts. The Department of Health and/or school will notify those individuals who are identified as being in close contact and may need to quarantine as per the DOH.

As always, the health and safety of our students and staff is our top priority.  Therefore, any individuals who are directed to quarantine will only be allowed to return to school when released by the DOH. Please use the link “DOH COVID Clearance” link on the website for proof of clearance which is necessary in order to return to school.

Please refer to the MCCSD main for additional COVID-19 resources.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me. 

Sincerely,

 Dan Katchihtes

Principal
