Dear Parents,
Staff of Antonian College Preparatory High School learned today, September 28, 2021, a student tested and received positive results.
- Student "A" (10th grade) tested and received positive results on Monday, September 27, 2021, and was last on campus Thursday, September 23, 2021.
As a reminder, the symptoms of COVID-19 can be one, some, or all of these: fever, chills, shortness of breath, cough, fatigue, sore throat, the new loss of taste or smell, and/or nausea/diarrhea. If your child develops any symptoms of any illness, please keep your child at home and contact the child's physician for further instructions.
If your child develops symptoms and/or tests positive, please notify the Health Coordinator, Pelagio Halaba, at phalaba@antonian.org as soon as possible so that we may begin the contact tracing process.
AT HOME TESTING KITS: Please note that negative test results from an "at home" test kit will not be considered valid.
Please know that as soon as we receive a report, we begin our contact tracing efforts and work to communicate with those who were believed to have "close contact" (as defined by the Centers of Disease Control and Prevention) with the person who tested positive, advising them to quarantine as warranted and to watch for any signs of symptoms of COVID- 19. As always, privacy reasons prevent us from sharing the name(s) of the affected individual(s).
Please pray for the speedy and complete recovery of the student affected by COVID-19, and all who are impacted by the disease.
