Today we were notified that one of our students has tested positive for COVID-19.   If your child was in a classroom with the COVID-19 positive student, then you will be notified.

We are contacting anyone considered to be a close contact of the student.  If you do not receive a phone call, then there is no need to quarantine at this time.  A close contact is defined as someone who was within six feet of an infected person for at least 15 minutes.

These exposures, unfortunate as they are, highlight the importance of everyone doing their part to minimize the spread of this virus: consider being vaccinated, stay home when sick or while waiting for Covid-19 test results, keep things clean and sanitized, utilize proper hand washing, wear masks, and maintain social distancing.

We take our commitment to your child's safety seriously and are working closely with the Leon County Health Department to follow guidelines and best practices during this time.
