Procedures for Returning to School After Traveling
Hello D103 families,
Traveling for work, pleasure, or family events may create an opportunity to contract COVID-19 and transmit it to others when you return. In order to help prevent the spread of COVID-19, we are asking families who have recently traveled to follow these procedures prior to your child attending school:
Have your child tested for COVID-19 with an RT-PCR test. Tests are widely available through CVS, Walgreens, your personal physician, or a Lake County testing site
Do not send your child to school until you receive a negative result
Share the results with school and your physician
If you or your child exhibit any COVID-19 symptom, please contact your personal physician for further instructions.
As a reminder, by sending your child to school each day, you are certifying that your child does not have any COVID-19 symptom:
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
Nausea or vomiting
Diarrhea
Our goal is to maintain a COVID-19 free environment at school. By avoiding risky behaviors and following the three W's - 1. Wear a mask, 2. Wash your hands, 3. Watch your distance, we can reduce the risk of COVID-19 in our schools and keep them open for our children.
Thank you and we look forward to in-person learning starting on Tuesday, the 19th of January.
Sincerely,
Scott Warren, Ed.D.
Superintendent of D103 Schools
