COVID Symptoms and Sick Children

What do I do if my child is sick even with mild symptoms?

Remote Learning and School Supervision

Students should not be at school unless it is absolutely necessary.
Supervision will continue to be provided for students absolutely unable to stay home.

Any student who is unwell, even with very mild symptoms, must stay home.

Any student who attends school with any COVID-19 symptoms will be sent home and must present a negative COVID-19 test and be free of symptoms before they return. Thank you for understanding the importance of these measures in keeping our students, staff and school community safe.
