Principal Message
As we move towards the end of October, just some important reminders. Last week I shared with families The Road Forward (NJDOH) and the district's Safe Return Plan. I just want to highlight one important detail for our families that may be traveling the week of November 1st from our districts Safe Return Plan (Page 8):
Travel
While there is no statewide travel advisory or mandate in place at this time, schools are encouraged to have a policy for exclusion for students and staff that travel that is consistent with CDC COVID-19 travel recommendations.
The CDC recommends that travel be delayed for those who are not fully vaccinated. If travel cannot be delayed, domestic and international travelers who are not fully vaccinated should get tested with a viral test 3-5 days after travel AND stay home and self-quarantine for a full 7 days after travel, even if they test negative.
If testing is not completed post-travel, individuals should self-quarantine for 10 days.
International travelers who are fully vaccinated, should also get tested with a viral test 3-5 days after travel, self-monitor for symptoms and isolate and get tested if symptoms develop.
For those traveling to/from New Jersey, domestic travel is defined as lasting 24 hours or longer to states or US territories other than those connected to New Jersey, such as Pennsylvania, New York, and Delaware.
Unvaccinated siblings of a student who has symptoms and meets COVID-19 Exclusion Criteria should be excluded from school until the symptomatic individual receives a negative test result. If the symptomatic individual tests positive, the sibling will need to quarantine.
Unvaccinated individuals who have been diagnosed with COVID-19 in the past 90 days do NOT need to be excluded from school if: 1) they have engaged in domestic and/or international travel; or 2) if they have had close contact with someone with COVID-19 and are asymptomatic.
If you should have any additional questions, please do not hesitate to contact Nurse Barbara (Petercsakb@middlesex.k12.nj.us) or myself (gianchigliar@middlesex.k12.nj.us) at (732) 317-6000 ext. 24602 to further discuss.
On Friday, October 29th, we will be celebrating the Fall Season and Halloween. Please take a few moments to review the letter discussing the day. Please know that students do not need to dress up to participate in the day’s activities.
