We have seen a significant drop in our numbers of positive Covid cases! However, it is still very important to screen your student for symptoms of illness.
Parents/guardians should screen their students for COVID-19 symptoms each day prior to sending their student to school. Please follow current guidelines on keeping your student home when exhibiting any signs of illness or communicable disease (see When To Keep Your Child Home from School).
Covid-19 symptoms include ANY of the following, not ALL: fever or chills, cough, shortness of breath or difficulty breathing, fatigue, muscle or body aches, headache, new loss of taste or smell, sore throat, congestion or runny nose, and nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea.
Parents are required to report to the school (via attendance form submission) as soon as possible if their student has tested positive for COVID-19 or is experiencing symptoms consistent with COVID-19.
