Penn Yan Elementary School Home

We realize that this has been quite the year! Due to Covid-19 regulations, we can not have our traditional ski club; however, Ski Club will continue in a different way. Our third through eighth grade students will be able to purchase their products individually through our group login on Bristol’s website at our ski club rates. Parents will be responsible for transportation to and from the mountain. Penn Yan Staff will not be there to supervise students. Your family will get ski club rates from Bristol Mountain, but parents/guardians will be responsible for your own child/children. The package will be similar to the traditional program with rentals and lessons sold separately. Reservations will be required for lessons and rentals. (Click the title for more information)

I am writing to make you aware that the Yates County Public Health (YCPH) informed us today that one of our high school students has tested positive for COVID-19. The student last attended school on Friday, October 16. According to Public Health, the student was never in school during the infectious period. Yates County Public Health continues to do their work regarding contact tracing and will notify individuals if necessary. Per privacy guidelines, no additional identifying information can be shared.
