Parker Junior High School shifted to remote learning starting Thursday, Dec. 16, after Flossmoor School District 161 said a “large number” of students and staff tested positive for COVID-19 in results from this week’s SHIELD testing.
Superintendent Dana Smith notified parents on Wednesday, Dec. 15, in a letter that noted District 161 has been in contact with the Cook County Department of Public Health, which verified the accuracy of the test results directly with SHIELD.
