COVID Updates
August 29, 2021
Dear Families:
I write with a few COVID updates and resources as we return to school tomorrow!
COVID Cases
We learned of two positive vaccinated adults this weekend at Thoreau and Ripley. Both were at work last week and contact tracing completed. We also learned of two positive Thoreau students. We expected to have cases given the current state numbers and also expect our COVID protocols to be effective.
COVID Websites
We created a portion of the district webpage to host this year’s COVID information. It is found here: https://www.concordps.org/covid-21-22/
COVID Resources
The following resources will be posted to that website tomorrow:
Asymptomatic Pooled Testing Update
Pool testing will begin the week of September 7. Please watch for the consent form this week. Everyone will need to reregister. We believe pool testing is an important mitigation factor to know what is happening in the schools. Please participate.
Symptom Screener
This is a reminder to complete the screener before school tomorrow morning and to monitor for symptoms, even mild ones.
I look forward to providing updates on other topics this year in addition to COVID! It will be one thing we do, not everything we do! Welcome back!
Best,
Laurie
