Safety Update - April 4-8
This week we had no new cases. Be assured that if your daughter could potentially be impacted by someone who tests positive, you will be informed as soon as possible. A reminder that quarantine means that students are not allowed to come to school. It also means they should not have contact with others beyond their family outside of school. We are not only trying to protect Ursuline but trying to be a part of the community solution as well.
Numbers as they stand today (at least one dose of COVID vaccine):
- Students: 72.00%
- Co-workers: 93.8%
Cheer and Dance Try-Outs
If they are interested and planning on trying out for cheer or dance, they must complete this form by next Wednesday, April 13.
