Dear Members of the Lourdes Academy Community:
As we continue to monitor media reports and heed guidance provided by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the Florida Department of Health, and the Archdiocese of Miami regarding the Coronavirus, we want to inform you that the Grandparents' Mass and Luncheon, scheduled for this Sunday, March 15 has been postponed. Because the CDC suggests the elderly are at higher risk, we deem this a prudent decision. More information is forthcoming, and refunds will be issued to those who already purchased tickets to the luncheon.
At this time, we have not made any other changes; events and programs will continue as planned.
Please be reminded that to prevent/minimize the spread of viruses and other communicable diseases, it is imperative our students stay home from school, if they have a fever and/or are experiencing flu or cold symptoms. Students who return to school before or without medical clearance and/or who exhibit flu-like symptoms will be sent home. Please trust our teachers will work with the girls, to ensure they make-up any missed work, upon their return to school.
This is a fluid situation, so we ask for your patience, support and cooperation. We will continue to provide our school community with updates, as circumstances evolve.
At this time, we are at low risk of exposure, and the measures being taken are strictly precautionary, to safeguard the health and welfare of all members of our school community. This is a time for precaution and prudence, not panic.
