SNOW MAKE-UP DAY MONDAY, FEBRUARY 15
ACSI Day of Prayer February 23, 2021
This year's theme, "Flourish," points us to Acts 12 where we're reminded that “the word of GOD continued to spread and flourish.” We may be facing different obstacles than those of the early church faced, but the same GOD that helped generations of believers is the same GOD that will help you, your students and your school community today.
COVID-19 Update
In January, we had zero exposures or quarantines.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION to remember:
A “direct exposure” is one in which an individual is directly exposed (has close contact, i.e. are within 6 feet for ≥ 15 minutes) to a COVID-positive individual. An “indirect exposure” is one in which an individual is exposed to someone else who was previously, directly, exposed to a COVID-positive individual.
Per the Back to School Guidelines, Canadian County Health Department (CCHD) is contacted for notification and recommendation in each situation. For direct exposures, the exposed individuals are required to quarantine for 14 days following their last day of direct exposure, even if they test negative at any point in time during the 14-day quarantine period. For individuals who experience an indirect exposure, quarantine not required, as per CCHD and the CDC, there is “little to no risk” of contracting the virus in this type of exposure.
Notification and follow-up with affected individuals/families takes place in each situation while also maintaining compliance with HIPAA regulations.
We are continuing to grow in our knowledge and experience in responding to exposures, and we appreciate the input and information that many of you have shared with us regarding your own experiences and desire for better and ongoing communication and information.
As always, we pray daily for exceptional health and safety for our students, teachers, and all our King’s Gate families. May God keep you and bless you, each and every one.
