Dover Elementary closed Thursday due to COVID-19
York Dispatch
Dover Elementary is the latest York County school to close this week because of a rise in COVID-19 cases.
The school closed Thursday after recording four new cases in the last 14 days, according to Dover Area School District s COVID-19 dashboard. The dashboard did not specify when the building would reopen to students. Friday is a holiday for the district, so the earliest students could return is Monday.
Overall, Dover has recorded 12 cases across its seven buildings in the last 14 days, but all other buildings remain open. Dover Area High School also has four recorded cases on the dashboard, but the school is large enough that four cases do not warrant a closure under state guidance.

Dover Area School District officials said Tuesday they want to petition state courts to delay the secession of Washington Township for one year following news of major budget cuts linked to the transition.
At a Dover school board meeting Tuesday night, board President Nathan Eifert said district leaders will meet with Northern York County School District officials on Wednesday to discuss a petition. Eifert said there are several unresolved issues that will take a long time to solve, and the current schedule makes the process needlessly challenging.
