ATTENTION: This is an update on how the Boil Water Advisory will impact school operations tomorrow.
Schools will operate on a normal schedule tomorrow but all water fountains will be sealed off. We confirmed with the Chester Metropolitan District that students and staff will be able to wash their hands with soap and utilize hand sanitizer during the day. Students will not be allowed to drink the water.
The district will deliver a few cases of bottled water to all school sites this afternoon but we are also asking parents to send a few bottles of water, if they choose with their children tomorrow.
Our Student Nutrition Staff Members have boil water advisory procedures in place in order to ensure the water is safe for preparing meals in all schools.
If you have any questions about water usage in our schools, please contact your child’s school in the morning.

With a new sports season in full swing, we would like to send a friendly reminder about a few safety policies that will be in effect at each event.
CCSD will continue to use its clear bag policy and metal detector screenings for all attendees.
ALL elementary and middle school-aged students MUST be accompanied by an adult at all times. Dropping children off will not be permitted.
All Chester County School District high school students must have a ticket and show their school ID to attend a high school athletic competition without a parent/guardian.
No one will be allowed to stand, congregate, or “hang out” on the concourse, behind the press box area, or around the concession stand areas during the game.
Spectators must stay at their seats except when going to the restrooms or concession stands.

All phone lines were down at each CCSD facility earlier this morning. It was discovered that the cause was an external issue. As of 8:55 am, TruVista has confirmed that we are back up and running. We do apologize for the inconvenience.
