While a new type of illness can be scary, we can protect our students, teachers, and the broader community by using simple everyday actions that protect people from other types of respiratory viruses. Our teachers, school nurses, and staff are working carefully to encourage these simple and effective habits of frequent hand washing, covering every cough or sneeze and cleaning classroom tables/surfaces frequently. This is important to help prevent the spread of other infections that can lead to student illness and absences.
Additionally, our custodial staff will continue to disinfect campuses each day with hospital-grade products to help offset the spread of communicable illnesses.
