Reopening Update

Good morning. 

It has been brought to our attention that some of our students have been exposed to an individual who has tested positive for Covid 19. This exposure did not occur at Holy Family School. As per the November 9 update to the Chester County Health Department's guidelines, the following criteria has been added to our Reopening Plan. 

We thank our parents for their transparency and diligence in ensuring the safety and well being of the Holy Family School Community. Should your child need to quarantine, we ask that parents contact the teachers to coordinate the virtual learning plan. 

Thank you.
