Dear Families,

Please find attached a flyer for upcoming “Coping Together” virtual seminar series sponsored by Maryvale and the Greater Essex County District School. There are several virtual seminars to choose from with dates ranging from Wednesday February 24 to Wednesday March 31. Please follow the link on the flyer to register if you are interested. Thank you.

Dear Parents/Guardians,

Please see the link below for revisions identified by the Ministry for students who exhibit a single Covid symptom. Note that if a student is sent home due to evidence of a single symptom, they will no longer be able to return to school after being symptom-free for 24 hours. All asymptomatic household contacts of symptomatic individuals are required to quarantine until the symptomatic household member:

• Receives a negative Covid-19 test result, or
• Receives an alternative diagnosis by a health care professional, or
• It has been 10 days since their symptom onset and they are feeling better

If the symptomatic individual tests positive, or is not tested and does not receive an alternative diagnosis from the health care professional, the symptomatic individual must isolate (including from the household members) for 10 days from symptom onset, and all household contacts must isolate until 14 days from their last contact with the symptomatic individual.

The provincial screener below is to be completed daily and, if there are any questions, please err on the side of caution. We ask that all parents have a plan to address quarantine measures should they become necessary. Thank you for your continued partnership in our efforts to keep our community safe.

Kind Regards,

Mr. Huggard and Mrs. Adlam
