ROSS (CBS SF) — With new COVID cases on the rise, officials at Marin’s The Branson School announced Tuesday the private high school was returning to only remote learning after students attended several Halloween parties where social distancing standards were not maintained and masks were not worn.

Head Master Chris Mazzola sent out a letter to parents whose children attend the private co-educational, college-preparatory high school located in Ross.
