Covid-19 Protocols

Possible Exposure Notification

Dear Families: I am writing to inform you that at least one individual with COVID-19 was identified in your son class today.  In an abundance of caution and to prevent further spread, we are notifying all involved classes of possible exposure.

Your child can continue attending school and participating in school activities, including sports and before- and after-school programs, as long as they do not have any symptoms and take the following actions:

● Mask at all times: All employees must wear surgical-type masks or higher-level PPE (e.g., KN95 or N95 respirator masks). Beginning the week of January 24th, and until further notice, students are required to wear well-fitting, non-cloth masks of multiple layers with a nose wire. Our school can provide your child with this type of mask if needed. Individuals must be masked at all times, including during sports and extracurricular activities, both indoors and outdoors. Eating and drinking should happen distanced from others.

● Test weekly: All students will continue to participate in weekly COVID-19 screening testing on our school’s regularly scheduled testing day with the mobile team. Students who have had a positive COVID-19 test are exempt from testing for 90 days from the date of the positive result. If your child does not participate in the mobile testing program on campus, or is absent during our testing day, they must take and upload an external PCR or antigen test result via Daily Pass (dailypass.lausd.net) each week. If your child tests positive, they must isolate immediately and follow home isolation protocols.

● Monitor for symptoms: If your child is ill or develops symptoms of COVID-19, they must follow isolation protocols and test immediately, at an LAUSD drive-up symptomatic testing site https://achieve.lausd.net/covidtestingappt or by getting a PCR test with an external healthcare provider. If you have questions or need support, please contact the school or LAUSD’s Community Engagement team at (213) 725-5637.

Sincerely,

Jose Rivera
