The following notice was sent to parents from the East Lycoming School District Thursday.
The District has been informed that a student has been deemed “presumed positive” in the Junior/Senior High School. Because this is the fourth case in our “14 day rolling average,” the Junior/Senior High School is required to shift to remote learning as part of our approved Pennsylvania Department of Education Continuity of Education Plan. The Junior/Senior High School will shift to remote instruction on December 18th and continue in remote instruction until January 4th. Students can find their class schedule for remote learning on Sapphire as well as in their email.

Traffic cautiously makes its way down West Fourth Street as snow begins to fall of the city Wednesday.
For students in some of the local school districts, the weather forecast of what is predicted to be a huge amount of snow moving into the area over the next few days, will sadly not bring with it the reprieve from school, historically known as a “snow day.”
With many of the districts in remote learning due to the pandemic, students are able to receive instruction, negating the necessity for a weather-related day off. But, not all districts have decided on this action.
