- Shortness of breath/Difficulty breathing
- Fatigue
- Headache
- Nausea/Vomiting/Diarrhea

Any of these symptoms listed may be symptoms of COVID-19. Please contact your health care provider and follow their guidance; they may want to test your child for COVID-19. If your child has the above symptoms, they will need to follow one the the 3 options below
- - Follow a 10-day isolation from the onset of symptoms
- - Obtain a negative COVID-19 test and provide the copy to the school nurse
- - Obtain a note from their health care provider stating that the symptoms they have are related to another illness and NOT COVID-19
There are certain criteria that must be met before your child can come back to school after having any of these symptoms. Please contact Nurse Dana at 907-761-4103 or dana.jenski@matsuk12.us to discuss the plan for returning to school. This is a very different year, normally many of these symptoms would not be worrisome. To be able to keep our doors open to in-person learning we must follow our district policies and the Alaska Smart Start 2020 Return To School Options.
Virtue of the Week
The virtue of the week is FRIENDLINESS. Each week classes will select a student of the week who has demonstrated the week's virtue. Those students will be part of the morning show on Fridays.
Friendliness is being a friend, through good times and bad. You take an interest in other people and make them feel welcome. You share your belongings, your time and yourself. Friendliness is the best cure for loneliness.
