East Windsor High School Reverts to Remote Learning For 2 Weeks
The superintendent of schools cites a staffing shortage due to the coronavirus pandemic as the reason for the closure of the building.

EAST WINDSOR, CT — Students at East Windsor High School have been reverted to full remote learning for the next two weeks due to a staffing shortage brought on by the coronavirus pandemic, according to Superintendent of Schools Christine DeBarge.
In a message on the district's website, DeBarge said another positive case of coronavirus has been confirmed at the high school, but the decision to close the building was because "the number of staff in quarantine results in our need to move to remote learning as we are unable to adequately staff the building."
Later in the message, DeBarge reiterated, "This is due to staffing and not due to a high number of cases."
