Dear Parents,
Antonian College Preparatory High School will continue to notify families of positive reports of COVID-19 within our community. The Communications Department will send an email notification at the end of the day by 6:00 p.m. If your child develops symptoms and/or tests positive, please notify the Health Coordinator, Pelagio Halaba, at phalaba@antonian.org as soon as possible so that we may begin the contact tracing process.
Staff of Antonian College Preparatory High School learned today, August 15, 2021, a student tested and received positive results.
- Student "A" (9th grade) tested and received positive results on Thursday, August 12, 2021, and was last on campus Friday, August 6, 2021, for an extracurricular activity.
As a reminder, the symptoms of COVID-19 can be one, some, or all of these: fever, chills, shortness of breath, cough, fatigue, sore throat, the new loss of taste or smell, and/or nausea/diarrhea. If your child develops any symptoms of any illness, please keep your child at home and contact the child's physician for further instructions.
Please know that as soon as we receive a report, we begin our contact tracing efforts and work to communicate with those who were believed to have "close contact" (as defined by the Centers of Disease Control and Prevention) with the person who tested positive, advising them to quarantine as warranted and to watch for any signs of symptoms of COVID- 19. As always, privacy reasons prevent us from sharing the name(s) of the affected individual(s).
Please pray for the speedy and complete recovery of the student affected by COVID-19, and all who are impacted by the disease.
