Dear St. Joan of Arc School Community,
As part of our continued efforts to support the health and well-being of our community, we would like to share some important reminders with you regarding illness. This is typically the time of the year that illness is more prevalent. Covid-19, the Flu, and Respiratory Viruses are circulating throughout our region.
Please have your child stay home from school if experiencing flu like or cold symptoms, to help control the spread of illness.
In addition if your child tests positive for Covid-19, please report this result to the Clinic Coordinator email streibig_erin@stjoan.org . The latest Covid-19 guidelines remain the same:
-If positive, the person is to quarantine at home for 5 days, they may return on day 6 if they are feeling well and have been fever free for 24 hours without the use of medicine
-They will need to wear a mask on days 6 through 10 at school
-If you are exposed to a positive person, you do not need to quarantine if you have no symptoms.
-Test 5 days after exposure to an individual that is positive
-Wear a mask on days 1 through 10 (from exposure) at school
Please also remind your child to:
-Wash their hands frequently
-Refrain from touching their eyes, nose, or mouth
-Cover their mouth and nose when sneezing or coughing
Thank you for your attention to these important health matter. Please contact the Clinic with any health related questions.
Erin Streibig
Clinic Coordinator
