Update to COVID/Illness Policies–Effective immediately covid testing for a child returning to school after having a fever is no longer required. We are working on updating our policies related to covid and will get that information out to you in the coming weeks. As always, should your child or anyone in your household test positive for covid or are exposed to a positive covid person, please contact me immediately and I will provide you with the protocol for testing and/or remaining at home.
Enjoy the remainder of the summer and please reach out should you have any questions.
Thank you,
Laura
