Based on that feedback the Archdiocese let us know we had to go remote. I don't know how else to put this but our school is one of a handful of non-hispanic Catholic school to go this route. Whereas the positivity rate in our neighborhood is sub 5%, the other schools that went remote are in areas where positivity is in double digits.

Hope you all finish strong.
