Colorado is among 48 states and territories to join in on an antitrust lawsuit against social media giant Facebook.

New York Attorney General Letitia James on Wednesday announced the state was joining dozens of other agencies across the U.S. in a lawsuit that takes aim at social media giant Facebook for its size and dominance in the marketplace.

Unfortunately, the Kit Carson School District is not immune to the COVID-19 situation. The district has quarantined approximately 13 students and two staff members due to an exposure to a positively tested person. This was done out of an abundance of caution and all students will be remote learning until their return. 

Again, we encourage parents to keep students home if they are showing any symptoms and to call the school to let us know that your child will be remote learning during these short periods of absences. 

Parents and Students,

Due to a positive COVID-19 case at Eads High School, all high school students were released Wednesday at 11:30 a.m. and will be transitioning to remote learning from December 10 through December 17.

Eads Elementary School and Eads Middle School will continue with in-person learning.
