Some school districts in York County have taken a different approach to incorporating snow closures into the way they track COVID-19 cases.
York Suburban School District, South Western School District, Spring Grove Area School District and West Shore School District reset their COVID-19 dashboards Monday to display zero cases across their buildings in the last 14 days following multiple snow days leading into last weekend. Ten other York County school districts still have cases recorded on their dashboards.
Spring Grove Superintendent George Ioannidis said Department of Health officials approved their reset after the district s buildings closed because of snow and were thoroughly cleaned.

The Pennsylvania Department of Education’s annual Safe Schools report for the 2019-20 school year showed a noticeable drop in reported arrests.
Districts are required to submit their misconduct reports, both criminal and academic infractions, to the state every year. Reporting sometimes changes from year-to-year, but no changes were made last school year.
Last year, the top three criminal reasons why students were in trouble statewide were:
Possession, use, or sale of tobacco or vaping 8.34 percent
Fighting 8.14 percent
Minor altercation 5.42 percent
Here’s a list of the schools that had the largest number of arrests, and the crime that was most common at each school.
