Following guidance from the Allegheny County Health Department, Serra Catholic High School (McKeesport, PA) will move to virtual learning for all students starting Thursday, November 19, 2020. Students will return to Serra Catholic for in-person learning on Tuesday, December 1, 2020, unless otherwise noted. The Thanksgiving break will be honored.
This action comes after a third case in as many days was reported to the school.
Parents were informed of the need for the closure and will be updated through the school’s regular communication channels.
In a letter to parents, principal Tim Chirdon said, “It has been a blessing to successfully complete our first academic quarter with limited interruptions due to COVID. I would like to thank everyone for their effort, cooperation and understanding throughout this difficult time.”
