Dear Parents, Guardians, Staff, and Community,

 

We have been informed of a positive case of COVID-19 at Hawks Rise.  An e-mail was sent to students in the classroom, through FOCUS.  Contact tracing investigations are being conducted and you will be contacted directly if further actions are necessary.  

 

Please monitor your child for any symptoms of COVID-19.  Symptoms may appear several days after exposure to the virus.  If your child is experiencing symptoms that require testing, please keep the student home until the test results are received.  If you notice any symptoms (fever, runny nose, sore throat, difficulty breathing, stomach distress, etc.), contact your child’s pediatrician immediately for further evaluation and testing. If the physician recommends any testing, please keep your child home until the results are received and notify your teacher as soon as possible.

 

As a reminder, please contact the school immediately if someone in your immediate household receives a COVID test or tests positive for COVID.  If someone at home develops COVID-19 symptoms and tests positive, everyone in the household must quarantine.  Please contact the school immediately if someone in your student’s home tests positive and we will explain the procedures. 


We take our commitment to your child’s safety seriously and are working closely with the Leon County Department of Health to follow CDC guidelines and best practices during this time.  If you have questions about Leon County School’s COVID-19 Protocols please visit https://www.leonschools.net/inclass

 

Thank you for your patience and grace during this time.

 

Beth Jackson, principal
