Two educators from Cherry Creek School District died over the weekend, one with a confirmed case of bacterial meningitis. The school has canceled all after-school activities and classes to allow the health department to finish contact tracing any students or staff who may have been in close contact with the infected teacher. The district is currently working to identify students or staff who may have come in contact with the infected teacher. Bacterial meningitis is a serious condition that can be deadly but can be treated with antibiotics.
