Principal's Update
23/September/2020
Dear Families,
I would like to update parents on the upcoming week. Lots of parents have chosen the option to send their children to school on Monday, September 28. This newsletter will hopefully answer questions, as well as explain some ripple effects.
Sincerely,
Yvette Soliz, Principal
Arrival
Thank you for helping us keep students safe.
Who is allowed to come to school in-person on Monday, September 28?
What is the effect of in-person attendance rising?
Transportation
On another related note: students taking the bus may have to wait for one or two pick-ups before boarding the bus. To abide by safety guidelines, buses can carry approximately 30 students safely.
A Message from Nurse Scott
- Option 1: 10 days have passed since symptoms began AND improvement in symptoms AND 24 hours fever free (without the use of fever reducing medication) *ALL 3 must be met with this option
- Option 2: The student has had a negative PCR test result indicating symptoms were not due to COVID-19. A rapid antigen test will NOT be accepted.
- Option 3: The student is cleared by a physician with a different diagnosis in writing.
If your child has any of the following Covid-19 symptoms listed below, parents will get a call from Nurse Scott to pick-up their child. (Parents must pick-up within an hour.)
Fever, chills, cough, shortness of breath or difficulty breathing, fatigue, muscle or body aches, headache, new loss of taste or smell, sore throat, congestion or runny nose, stomach ache, nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea.
