Quarantine concerns parents

The Chester County Board of Education is set to meet at 7 p.m. this evening, September 23, in the East Chester Elementary cafeteria.
Among items of discussion, the board will be considering adjustments to quarantine procedures due to parents becoming increasingly concerned about students’ repeated quarantines.
Parents’ concerns include loss of education from distance learning, childcare during working hours, the legality of Chester County’s current quarantine protocol and more.
Other items on the agenda include: a recommendation for the CCBOE to approve the budget amendment to purchase the Arendall Property from the fund balance, delegations, spotlights, a recommendation from the CCBOE Policy Committee for changes to CCBOE board policies and the approval of District-wide fundraiser activities for the 2021-22 school year.
