ORANGE A Ralph C. Mahar Regional School District School Committee vote to enter a hybrid learning model on Jan. 21 may be reversed in a few weeks, at least in part because a teacher and some office workers she came into contact with are quarantining after it was learned the teacher had tested positive for COVID-19.
The unidentified educator contracted the novel coronavirus from her adult daughter, who she lives with, according to School Committee Chair Peter Cross. She was working out of Ralph C. Mahar Regional School to teach students remotely and briefly spoke with four or five masked workers in the high school office, Cross said.
