At least two students who attended these maskless, Oak Grove High-administration approved senior class activities had tested positive for #COVID19, several sources say.

Now, the school district is notifying parents to quarantine their kids. 1/
"If your student participated this morning in senior celebration, we are notifying that a positive Covid case has been identified."

But seniors aren't the only ones who had big maskless get togethers... 2/
These photos are from the maskless 9th grade class back to school breakfast at Half Shell Oyster House (left) and the 10th grade back to school breakfast (right). 3/
This is the letter from Lamar County Schools that parents are now receiving.

I'm learning all of this because of what parents and telling and sharing with me.

Mississippi schools aren't required to inform the public of #COVID19 cases.
Sources say that two students tested positive for #COVID19 and THEN attended the senior festivities seen in these photos and in the video up top, to be clear. 5/
More photos from Oak Grove High School's senior festivities day.

I've no reason to think that students in these photos are the ones who tested positive, but I pixelated their faces regardless. 6/
I'm not clear on whether both students knew they were positive when they attended the event or if they had only been tested before attending and the results came back positive.

And like I said, a lot of schools just aren't giving us COVID info. 7/
