St. Louise Shifts To Online Learning Due To COVID Concerns

PITTSBURGH, Pa. — There are new COVID-19 situations, and updates in cases announced earlier this week from schools within the Catholic Diocese of Pittsburgh. School administrators continue to follow policies and protocols which include immediate reporting of the cases to appropriate health agencies. With an abundance of caution and a focus on keeping school communities safe, actions are taken based on medical guidance as offered through those health agencies. Following health and safety protocols after a third person reported a positive COVID-19 test result, St. Louise De Marillac Catholic School in Upper Saint Clair will close, and students will learn online until November 2, 2020. Based on updated direction from the Allegheny County Health Department, the boys’ soccer program at North Catholic High School will be back at school Monday, October 26, and able to resume practices and matches effective immediately. All 27 people involved with the North Catholic Varsity Boys Soccer Team had begun quarantine based on original guidance from the Allegheny County Health Department upon being notified that the team was potentially exposed to COVID-19 in a recent match.
