When should a student stay home from on-campus learning and/or appointments?

If they have experienced any one of these symptoms within the last 10 days

• Fever with or without chills/rigors (T > 99 that does not resolve within 30 min. without medication), Cough, Shortness of breath, Nasal congestion/runny nose, Sore throat, nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea, Fatigue, New loss of taste/smell, Headache, Muscle or body aches, Poor feeding or poor appetite

• Student has been in close contact with someone who has tested positive or is presumed positive for COVID within the last 14 days

* Disregard symptoms related to a pre-existing, chronic condition - a doctor's note must be on file with the school. The nature of the presenting symptom (e.g., duration, intensity) must be consistent with the underlying chronic condition.

What should you do if your child meets any of the criteria above?

Please reach out to your child's teacher or the school office, even if it is not a scheduled on campus day. Following the notification, our Safety Officer will reach out via email with guidelines on when your child may return to campus.

Thank you for doing your part to help keep our school community safe and healthy!

Volunteer Protocols

COVID-Related Protocols -

• Volunteers who are in an indoor school setting when students are present must wear a mask. This is regardless of vaccination status

• Volunteers who are serving outdoors are advised to wear a mask, however, it is not a requirement

• Volunteers who serve in a school setting, are considered "workers" and must provide proof of vaccination status; if they are unvaccinated, they will be asked to submit negative COVID test results weekly. Refer to this slide deck for an overview of what categories of volunteers will be considered "workers."

• Parents may use our weekly testing program if they wish

• Links to surveys and letter:

- NON-EMPLOYEE Vaccination Verification Form - this is the first step - all volunteers must fill out.

- NON-EMPLOYEE COVID Testing Submission Form - this is the second step, ONLY for those volunteers who are not fully vaccinated or choose not to declare.

- Explanatory Letter from Health & Safety Team

TB Assessment - Volunteers who will have "frequent or prolonged contact" with students, including regularly-scheduled classroom volunteering, overnight trips, and field trips where cumulative face-to-face time with students exceeds 8 hours, must be assessed for TB. This assessment consists of a series of yes/no questions and must be administered by our school nurse, John Fitzgerald.
