Sussex Tech High School is closing through next week after another staff member tested positive for COVID-19.

Update 10/30: Another Student and staff member tested positive on Friday, brining the total to at least two students and three staff testing positive for the virus.

 

This comes a day after the district announced a staff member and a student tested positive for the virus.

 

The campus will be closed through November 6th.

 

Most students are still learning remotely at the school, but some in person activities such as athletics are taking place on campus.

 

Just last week, Woodbridge High School closed its campus after an outbreak of COVID-19 cases.  

 

Woodbridge was operating in a hybrid learning format - but will teach remotely until November 9th.

 

Sussex Tech says people who’ve been in close contact with those who’ve tested positive have been notified.
