Either there's a policy that means they never should have opened in the first place because they'll never open again if following this protocol, or there's got to be more to the story.


I'm an SSMA parent. The email from the school said only the affected classroom would close, but when I arrived for drop-off I was informed that the entire school was closed.

SSMA will swiftly be closing for lack of enrollment.

How are they ever going to be open at all, if that's the rule?

Yikes, that definitely makes no sense. At the VERY most, the child(ren) of that parent should stay home and test/quarantine. But the whole school???

They closed the whole school? Because a parent was in contact with a COVID case? That makes zero sense.

School started for some kids just yesterday. I think the others started Monday?

Oh good grief. It's going to be a LONG year if this is their protocol.

Is their plan to close the whole school any time a parent, student or staff tests positive? There won't be school all year!

That...makes no sense (on the part of SSMA).
