Williamston Primary School
HAPPY NEW YEAR Tigers!!!
Happy New Year!! I hope that everyone has had a wonderful holiday and winter break. Myself along with the teachers and staff of WPS are looking forward to the return of our students on Tuesday January 3,2022. Please be reminded that school starts promptly at 7:55 with our tardy bell ringing at 8:00. With that being said parents please make sure that you have your students at school on time. Parents please help us during this period of COVID in keeping all of our students safe by keeping your child home from school if they develop any symptoms that could be attributed to COVID. Also please make sure that you send your child to school with a mask daily. Thank you for your efforts in helping us keep our students and staff healthy and safe. Again we say Thank you for all you do for Williamston Primary School.

From The Nurses Desk:
Reminders:
- DO NOT send your child to school sick!
- Please encourage and remind your child to keep their masks on while on the bus, and while at school. This is mandatory.
- Please encourage and remind them to wash their hands frequently.
- If your child has had a fever, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, they are not to return until 24 hours symptom free, WITHOUT any medications!
- Colds, Flu, and Covid are rampant right now, please protect your child and others by following these rules.
- PLEASE update your contact information if that has changed.
- There have been some changes to our protocol from StrongSchoolsNC: Public Health Toolkit for K-12. Quarantine time has decreased, but this is with STRICT mask wear after the initial quarantine.
- At home tests kits are not acceptable documentation of testing.
- If you have questions or are in doubt for any reason about whether to send your child to school after symptoms, exposure, or diagnosis please feel free to contact me at the school.
- I look forward to all 2022 has in store for us and getting to work with and know you all.
