WINGATE It’s happening.
Just a week after students returned to their classrooms, Bald Eagle Area students will be switching to remote learning. On the district’s Facebook page Monday, BEA superintendent Scott Graham announced that all school buildings will close due to an “uptick” in COVID-19 cases and quarantines throughout the district. Remote learning is scheduled to begin Wednesday and continue through Tuesday, Dec. 22.
Since students returned to in-person learning last week, multiple cases have been reported at the middle school and high school buildings. Two new cases were reported at Wingate Elementary, and three additional cases were confirmed Monday, Graham said in the district’s Facebook post.
