WOOLWICH, N.J. (1010 WINS) -- A group of New Jersey high schoolers tested positive for COVID-19 after they went to a Jersey Shore beach party together, according to a report.
In a letter sent out to parents on Friday, Kingsway Regional School District Superintendent James Lavender said “multiple” Kingsway Regional High School students tested positive for the virus after attending a party in Sea Isle City on Aug. 13, NJ.com reported.
The health department “is working hard to determine the extent of this exposure,” Lavender wrote, according to the outlet.
“Unfortunately, inconclusive and intermittent social media posts have become our best resource of information, exhausting both education and health officials throughout the process,” he said.
“Therefore, we need your help as the status of this investigation is fluid and communication is vital as we work to mitigate additional community spread,” he added.
