Five cases of the novel coronavirus have been confirmed at five Norwalk schools. 

Officials say the families who are affected have been contacted.

The schools include Cranbury Elementary School; Rowayton Elementary; Roton Middle School; Ponus Ridge Middle School; and Norwalk High School.

Students and staff from Cranbury will need to quarantine, and go to learning from home until Oct. 18. No 

News 12 is told that those from other schools were not in the building at the same time as the person who tested positive -- or when the person was contagious. No quarantine is needed for those four schools
