A fifth grade class at Butler Catholic School is moving to remote learning because of a positive COVID-19 test.
The Diocese of Pittsburgh announced that that someone involved with the class tested positive and that others will need to quarantine due to potential exposure.
The fifth grade class will be in remote learning until next Wednesday.
“We want to keep our students here in school for in-person learning. It’s getting harder and harder to keep this goal,” Butler Catholic principal Sister John Ann Mulhern said in a press release. “We will keep the well-being of our students and staff uppermost in the decision we make.”
The rest of Butler Catholic will remain at school for in-person instruction.
