Diarrhea-causing illness keeps Perth Amboy school closed

PERTH AMBOY – Students attending William C. McGinnis Middle School and their teachers are not scheduled to return to class until at least Thursday as the district continues cleaning the school after an adult was diagnosed with a contagious diarrhea illness last week.

And if the cleaning is not completed by Wednesday, the school could be closed even longer.

School officials have not indicated when the school days would be made up. A message left with Board of Education President Samuel Lebreault was not returned by deadline.

All other district schools have continued to operate on a normal schedule. McGinnis School, 271 State St., is one of two district middle schools.

It must have been some serious diarrhea to have closed a school down. And it was just 1 adult?

How long does it take to clean up diarrhea? Did the teacher blow it all over the whole school or what?!

I dunno. Something seems smelly about this one.
