Bridgehampton Families,

I hope all is well. As I communicated in my message last night, we will continue to monitor information regarding the Coronavirus (COVID-19) as it evolves on a daily basis from our local and state officials and our custodial staff is working diligently to continue to maintain a safe and healthy environment for all stakeholders.

As the safety of our students and staff is our first priority, until further notice, the district will be canceling all activities outside of the school district, such as:

* Field Trips
* Athletic Practices & Games
* Staff Conferences
* YMCA Swimming Lessons
* Bee Club
* Outside Organizations Utilizing The Gymnasium

The School District Will Remain Open For Student Classes.

Please keep in mind the following health care practices:

* Wash hands thoroughly and regularly with anti-bacterial soap.
* Practice social distancing when ill.
* Keep children who exhibit cold and flu-like symptoms home.
* Encourage children to keep hands out of their mouth, nose, eyes, etc.
* Cough or sneeze into the elbow, not the hands.
* When greeting others, use an “elbow bump” if necessary, instead of a hug or handshake.
