In Fair Lawn, both cases were reported at the Edison School, which houses the district's Board of Education office and Pre-K classes for student services, Superintendent Nick Norcia said in a letter.
One staff member and one employee in the BOE office tested positive, Norcia said. It was not clear if the cases were linked. One was announce Oct. 16, the other Oct. 18.
All K-12 students in Fair Lawn began a hybrid schedule on Monday, Oct. 19. The Board offices and Pre-K remained open, a district spokeswoman said.
"The situation is isolated and there has been no close contact with any students," Norcia said in Sunday's letter.
"Cleaning and disinfecting of all exposed areas in the school will begin immediately. The school is also taking precautions to prevent the introduction and spread of viruses and other germs and is cleaning frequently touched surfaces daily. The status of this situation is fluid, and we are monitoring it closely."
