Measles Information for Parents 
Given the current information on the Measles outbreak across the country, please be assured that the T/E School District continues to be in close touch with the Centers for Disease Control and local health department to receive ongoing updated information. At this time, there are no reported cases of measles in Chester County or in our School District. We will continue to monitor the situation and keep parents and the community informed. For additional information, please refer to the links provided to the CDC and to the Measles information fact sheet. Immunization information is also available on the District web site.

 

 

FAQs on New Requirement for Background Clearances for School Volunteers
The Tredyffrin/Easttown School District welcomes and values its volunteers.  Our school volunteers share their time, talents and skills to enhance the educational experiences of our students. As part of an additional measure to support a safe school environment, the Pennsylvania legislature has made recent revisions to a Pennsylvania child protection law that will require most school volunteers to have background clearances in order to serve in our school buildings. The District's goal is to make it as easy as possible for our school volunteers to continue to contribute to the education of our students.
