COVID Health Protocols

Please continue to support us as you monitor your child daily for symptoms. If your child has symptoms, please keep them home and complete a COVID test to return to school. Effective March 22nd, due to the LOW COVID-19 Community levels and updated IDPH guidance, we are approved to use antigen or PCR tests (including HOME tests) to clear a symptomatic individual to return to school. Antigen tests are available in our school nurse offices should a child or staff member exhibit symptoms during the school day. We can accept a PCR test (including a rapid PCR) or an Antigen test. If using a home test, please provide an image of the test result including the date and name of the individual tested to your school nurse.
