Cape Elizabeth High School

Dear Parents/Guardians, we hope you are having a great week. We are sending you links to the District Planning Committee meetings held on 8/4 and 8/12 so you can review the discussion around Covid-19 mitigation strategies for the upcoming school year. The recommendations: 1) Universal masking for anyone in a school building no matter vaccination status and; 2) Pooled testing offered to all students and staff on a voluntary basis. These recommendations will be considered and voted upon by the School Board on 8/16 at 6:30 pm at the Town Hall. If you attend, please note that masks are now required in all town buildings. Thanks again for your support. ~ Superintendent Record Click here for the link to the recorded meeting: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ExMtbKor5lY
