HEALTH & SAFETY INFORMATION
COVID Testing for Students
Children who are brought to Mt. Zion for testing must be brought by a parent or guardian who can sign the consent forms that MUSC requires for testing.
COVID SAFETY REMINDERS
If a member of your household is asked to quarantine, is waiting on COVID test results, or has tested positive for COVID-19, please call the school before sending your child. If you've recently travelled and are unsure if you should quarantine, we do not mind speaking to you about the best plan for your family. Calling the school will enable us to make sure that you get the correct advice from the CCSD Nursing staff about whether your child needs to quarantine.
If your family is asked to quarantine and you need to pick up an iPad or other materials from the school, please call the front office (via phone or the intercom) when you arrive and do not enter the building. We will bring the materials out to you.
CCSD COVID DASHBOARD
You can find that information here:
https://www.ccsdschools.com/COVID-notification
The district is updating notification procedures for families about COVID-19 positive cases within schools. Once these procedures are finalized, we will share them with all families.
Free Breakfast & Lunch for Children 18 and Under!
CCSD is asking all families who will be picking up meals to register in advance at www.ccsdschoolmeals.com/
