KCSD Staff and Community,
It is a relief to see the data for community spread in the moderate range for the largest portion of our school district. Cases within the district are following the same trend. Currently within KCSD there are only two active cases of Covid-19 among our staff and two among our students across three different schools. Please continue following all safety guidelines and keeping pandemic contacts to a minimum and report any known cases to the appropriate building principal and follow the social distancing guidelines. Keep your child home if they may have been exposed to anyone with Covid-19, or if they exhibit any of the Covid-19 symptoms. Keystone Central schools will continue to follow the current Health and Safety plans. We will keep you informed of any news from the Pennsylvania Department of Education with regards to changes in public school requirements and restrictions.
Below is the most recent data for community spread for the counties in our school district:
