COVID-19 Mask & Health Form Update
However, there is a silver lining. Due to the continuous changes and relaxation of COVID restrictions throughout the state and your ongoing cooperation regarding safety measures, we no longer require that students or staff fill out a daily health form check-in. It is important to note that if your child is sick or shows any symptoms of COVID-19, please stay home and contact the school nurse. Masks will continue to be required in elementary and secondary schools per CDC guidance.
We will continue to monitor the mandates throughout the state, the CDC and NJDOH updates, and consult with the Burlington County Department of Health on the requirements for K-12 settings as we move forward this year and plan for the summer sessions upcoming school year.
As always, THANK YOU FOR YOUR COOPERATION & continue to stay safe & healthy!
