If you are interested in referring your child, you are welcome to discuss this with your child’s LC teachers. Referrals will be accepted through December 17, 2021.
CLICK HERE to access the referral. Please place the completed referral in an envelope to the attention of Amanda Cucinotta and have your student turn it into the front office.
Nurse Kendall Update
Cold and Flu Season are upon us! Remember to keep washing your hands and stay home when you are sick. The ONLY difference between flu and Covid symptoms is loss of taste and smell with Covid. Please notify us if you are keeping your student home for Covid or flu and if your child is Covid positive, please do the self-report on your child’s SSO/Covid Central.
Remember if a person in your household tested positive for Covid-19, your student needs to quarantine for 10 days, unless he/she has been vaccinated or we have documentation of a past Covid infection. Please contact me if you have any questions and contact the school if you are quarantining so that your child’s absences will be excused.
The Mayo Clinic has an interesting article that outlines the differences between Covid-19, allergies, and flu
COVID-19 Positive Self-Report
The parents now can self-report their students' Covid positives. We ask that you please self-report your child's positive Covid tests.
The process is:
- Sign on to student's SSO
- Click on Covid Central
- Click on Self Report
- Enter information
- The app will generate a return to school date through an email
- The app will email the school nurse and will let the nurse know that the parent requested contact from the nurse if the parent requested contact
