Warsaw Community Schools, working with guidance from the health department due to large numbers of reported illnesses and absences, will be closing four schools for two days.
Leesburg Elementary School, Jefferson Elementary School, Lakeview Middle School and Warsaw Community High School will be on a synchronous e-Learning day today and Friday, Dec. 15-16, due to high absenteeism of students, teachers, bus drivers and support staff. The situation will be closely monitored and updates will be communicated to parents via email, according to a news release Wednesday afternoon from WCS.
More information will be forthcoming from building principals and teachers. Transportation staff will be reaching out with necessary bus changes if impacted.
Baker Youth Club also will be providing e-Learning support from noon today.
WCS recognizes the need to move Leesburg, Jefferson, Lakeview and WCHS to e-Learning days today and Friday, the release states, but all other WCS schools will remain open and have in-person learning on their regular schedules.
