Hello Green Oaks families,
We are very active in establishing baseline data on each student’s academic understanding. We recognize that students will be at different places along the learning spectrum and we have excellent teachers and aides to assist this year!
Given questions which arise should a student encountger COVID exposure, wanted to provide some clarity when a student is exposed during school hours and while wearing a mask indoors:
If exposed to a person with COVID-19 in a school setting and both individuals were masked so that the student in question qualifies for a modified quarantine. In that case the student is quarantined but the family can CHOOSE to agree to testing 2x per week and continue monitoring for symptoms in which case they can attend in-person instruction but may still not attend before school, after school or extra- curricular events and must quarantine outside school.
Please refer to the information below for testing dates and times.
Have a wonderful week!
Robert S. Reynolds
Principal
