Hempfield Area High School students will complete classes remotely two days this week due to covid-19 cases, district leaders announced Monday. According to a letter from Superintendent Tammy Wolicki, high school students will attend online classes Tuesday and Wednesday after additional students tested positive for the virus and were in school while infectious. In all, there are nine positive cases at the high school, according to an online tracker. Closing the school will mitigate the spread of the virus while giving district officials time to conduct contact tracing, Wolicki said.

Within 24 hours, he had the doses and plenty of waiting arms. One was attached to Vilma Brisbane, a Hempfield woman whose granddaughter, Mindy Vickers, was volunteering at the nine-hour clinic on Valentine’s Day . Vickers, a Hempfield Area teacher, said most of the approximately 900 patients were excited to get off the Hayden’s Pharmacy waiting list, which had swelled to 45,000 names.
