Dear fifth grade families,

A third case of Covid-19 has been reported in the fifth grade class.

Another student has tested positive for Covid-19 today, February 20th, 2022. The student has mild symptoms.

Your child's last date of exposure to the student was Friday, 18th February. Based on this, if your child was in school on Friday, their Day 5 test date is Weds, 23rd February. Given the timing of the positive exposures we recommend testing on Weds, 23rd February as well as on Monday 21st Feb, as previously indicated, .

Recommended:

Test: Today

Test Day 3: Monday, 21st February (= Day 3 positive exposure to students and Day 5 positive exposure to teacher)

Test Day 5: Wednesday, 23rd February (= Day 5 positive exposure to students)

.

***Please note, If your child develops symptoms at any time, they should be tested even if it is not Day 3 or 5***

If you have questions please do not hesitate to get in touch at Covid Confidential

We hope everyone remains well,

Susan Ramaty
