The Honeoye Falls-Lima Central School District reported an outbreak of COVID-19 at the Manor School last week.
The outbreak or cluster was reported on September 20. The district reported that due to the outbreak, one classroom was shifted to full remote for 10 days. The students diagnosed are being kept home from school until they are no longer infectious and parents of all students known to have close contact have been notified and instructed to keep children home. Staff who were in close contact and who have been vaccinated have been offered routine testing and support. Those staff members who are unvaccinated but who were determined to have been in close contact were also placed in quarantine. As of September 20, three students at the high school were in quarantine, three at the Middle School and 12 at Manor School.
If parents have not been notified by either the school district or state, it is believed that their children were not in close contact with those children.
According to the New York State School Covid Report Card on September 24, HF-L reported the six students at Manor had tested positive, one student at Lima Primary had tested positive, one Middle School student had tested positive and one high school student had tested positive.
In the Wheatland-Chili school district, the state report card on September 24 stated that there was four students testing positive at TJ Connor Elementary School and two students testing positive at the Junior/Senior High School building. In addition, there was one staff member at the Junior/Senior High building testing positive but no teachers had tested positive.
