Dear High School Parents,
Please be reminded that this upcoming Monday, February 28, students will have the option to wear a mask while at school, but will no longer be required to do so. We are excited to take another step toward regaining familiar school operations for our students and staff.
As stated in last week’s communication, the Strong Schools NC Public Health Toolkit has been updated to no longer recommend contact tracing nor require that students or staff who are exposed to COVID-19, but asymptomatic, quarantine from school. Parents can find LNC’s updated Health & Safety Protocols here. We will continue to notify our community of reported cases and exposures to COVID-19 on our COVID-19 Dashboard on a weekly basis.
Finally, we recognize that some of our families will continue to mask based on personal circumstances and the entire LNC Community supports them with this individual decision. Thank you for your trust that our Safe Schools Committee, along with input from Mrs. Shipman and Nurse Denise, will continue to monitor virus activity in our local and LNC community, recommending policies that are consistent with sound health and safety practices for our students and staff.
