Dear Parents,
For the upcoming school year, we will be using a Smartphone app called Magnus Health for our Daily Health Assessment (DHA)– a COVID-19 screening tool for all students, employees, and visitors to campus. You will be asked to perform this assessment for each MPH student in your household every morning and submit it prior to departure for school, and no later than 7:15 a.m. The Magnus mobile app will allow you to complete this quickly and easily in just a few clicks. This screening process will help us create the safest possible environment for your children and MPH faculty and staff. At the completion of the quick survey each morning, you will receive a message via the app indicating whether your child has permission to be on campus that day. (NOTE: Those planning to participate at home via simulcast learning should still complete the DHA.)
To Access Your Magnus Health Account
You will receive an email today providing your username to access your child(ren)’s health accounts. You will then click the provided link to create your password (this should be done through a web browser). Upon completion of this process, you should download the app on your Smartphone to access your account and the DHA.
Beginning on September 8, parents and guardians will complete the DHA for their child(ren) each school day. If you’d like to test it out, the assessment will be accessible starting Monday, September 7. We thank you in advance for your cooperation in this daily screening, as it will be an important component of our safety protocols. Timely submission of health information (no later than 7:15 a.m.) is vital so preparations can be made prior to the start of each school day.
Later in the school year, we will also shift all student medical information to the Magnus Health online database. There are many benefits to this change, including decreasing the amount of paperwork for parents to complete each year while enabling the School to make more accurate information readily accessible to our nurse, chaperones, and other school officials. More details on this will be sent as they become available.
Have a great weekend!
