Guidance for East Moriches parents on the District's plans for School Reopening and Contact Tracing


Plans to support local health departments in contact tracing efforts using the protocols, training, and tools provided through the New York State Contact Tracing Program – an initiative between the Department of Health, Bloomberg Philanthropies, Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, and Vital Strategies

Contact Tracing


Contact tracing is the process of contacting all people who've had contact with someone who tested positive for COVID-19.

Contact Tracers work with people who have tested positive for COVID-19 to identify people they have had contact with and let them know they may have been exposed to the disease.

New York State has partnered with Bloomberg Philanthropies, Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health and Vital Strategies to create the New York State Contact Tracing Program.

East Moriches UFSD will cooperate with all state and local health department isolation, and quarantine efforts


If an individual tests positive for COVID-19, East Moriches UFSD will provide local and state health officials with all potential contacts the individual may have had.

This includes:

Persons who came into contact with an individual who tested positive will be notified by the MS and/or ES coordinator.

Additional notification, to the parents/guardians of students and staff who did not come into contact with a person that tested positive for COVID-19 will occur.
