Dear Brick Family,
In an effort to maintain strong communication and full transparency we will send you updates as we have them.
Today, we were notified that a parent of a Brick student has recently returned from travel in Italy. Health officials do recommend that this parent, who is asymptomatic, follow the 14 day self-quarantine protocol.
When we contacted the New York City Department of Health we were informed that no further action was necessary and that there is no increased risk to our community. Even so, out of an abundance of caution, the child of this parent will be staying home for the remainder of this week until their parent’s quarantine period has officially ended on Sunday. To reiterate, none of the Brick family members have any symptoms and if they remain asymptomatic the student will return to school on Monday. This satisfies the 14-day quarantine period, following the parents' return to NY.
In keeping with our internal school protocols, if you or a member of your immediate household come in contact with anyone who has a suspected or confirmed case of COVID-19/Coronavirus or who has been asked to self-quarantine, please contact me at: awarden@brickchurch.org.
We will continue to have open and regular communication with you regarding the health of this community and the upcoming spring break and any policies and procedures we will require with regard to travel.
As always, our top priority is the safety and well-being of our Brick community. Your cooperation and understanding is greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,
Amy Warden
Director
