Reading Time: < 1 minuteOn Wednesday, the MMC community received the email that a staff member at 71st St. tested positive. Having last been on campus Monday, September 14th, all facilities were cleaned that evening. On Wednesday, September 16th, a full campus cleaning was facilitated.
The school facilitated its contact tracing team to fully identify any potential spread of COVID-19, and all persons that came in contact with said staff member have been notified and are responsibly quarantining until they can get either tested, or receive their results.
All facilities remain open, with all original requirements still active.
