As Covid is at the top of everyone's mind, we have a few reminders for our community:

• If your student is sick at home, they should not come to school. Please assess your student(s) daily at home before sending them back to school.

• If you student has tested positive, or been in close contact with a confirmed covid-19 case, please EMAIL Nurse Sundin at Jsundin@dallasisd.org or Nurse Assistant Mclemore-Vaughn at lmclemorevaughn@dallasisd.org. Emails reporting Covid-related information should contain: 
  1. Students’ legal name and class section / teacher
  2. Date of close contact or positive test
  3. Symptoms and any further context
  4. Vaccination status of the student
  5. Copy of positive/negative Covid-19 test if applicable

• Quarantine guidance has been updated to reflect an isolation period of 5 days after a positive Covid test.  See those details HERE.

• Those who have been fully vaccinated and are deemed a close contact will not be required to quarantine if they are not displaying symptoms. As always, anyone who displays symptoms of COVID-19 should stay home and contact their health care provider.

• If your child has been fully vaccinated, please submit a copy of the vaccination card to lmclemorevaughn@dallasisd.org.

See HERE for the full letter to parents. Please have a safe and healthy week!
