COVID-19 Staff Update

OSD Staff,

I wanted to take an opportunity to follow up on where we are at this time. Also wanted to make sure that you are all well aware of our current COVID-19 status.

With the positive COVID-19 cases rising in Murray County, we at OSD have felt that spike. As of right now, OSD has had 4 staff members and 2 students test positive for COVID-19. Many of you have felt the effects of having to quarantine and isolate because of those positive cases. 

Because your health and safety is our priority and after discussions with DRS leadership, it has been decided that we will close the campus for next week. Only those that have been contacted directly and been given permission have the approval to enter campus next week. As we continue to work with our parent agency, DRS, we will continue to update you on any new information that is provided. 

Thank you for your continued support, patience, and understanding during this very difficult time. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact your supervisor, Matt Neal, or Janie Lynch.

Thank you,

Matt Neal
