On Thursday, November 10th, the Colonial School District (CSD) shared communications with families regarding elevated lead levels in schools to those indicated after testing by the Department of Education (DOE) and Division of Public Health (DPH). This LINK will provide a list of CSD schools impacted. As we indicated on Thursday, DOE was working on messaging for families this weekend. The link below contains that letter which provides information regarding a virtual town hall meeting tonight at 7:30 PM hosted by DOE and DPH along with other important information.

Please note, not all CSD schools are impacted by this, and at the schools that are impacted, actions have already been taken to remove exposure to the affected fixtures. If your questions are not answered tonight at the online forum, you can also email DDOE@doe.k12.de.us, and they will get back to you.
