Recorded Zones of Regulation Presenations
New CDC Guidelines!!!
Dear Addison School District 4 Parents and Guardians:
We would like to update our Addison families regarding new protocols and procedures related to COVID-19 from the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH). These guidelines have an effect on school districts across the state of Illinois. Below are new guidelines from the CDC and IDPH:
1. If a student is quarantined due to close contact, they must quarantine for 10 days. If they are quarantined, they may participate in remote learning.
2. If a student travels out of the state of Illinois, either domestically or internationally, the student must quarantine for 10 days. They too, may participate in remote learning during their quarantine.
3. Students and Staff do not need to be sent home or denied entry to schools if they exhibit the following symptoms: Abdominal pain for unknown cause, new congestion/runny nose, or nausea. These conditions have been removed from the COVID-19 symptom list.
Unfortunately, these symptoms cannot be removed from the screening tool on Skyward. Please disregard these symptoms when screening your child.
If you have any other questions, please feel free to reach out to me (cwartman@asd4.org) or your building principal or nursing staff.
Sincerely,
Charles Wartman
Assistant Superintendent

If a language other than English is spoken in the home, the child must have an assessment of their English Language Proficiency to determine correct placement in either General Education or Dual Language.

When the online registration is complete and additional registration information is submitted, an appointment will be made to have the child screened for English Proficiency on that date.
