  • COVID-19 Information for the Fall

    Posted by Jenna Dalla Mura on 8/17/2020

    Even though school will be quite different this fall, I am excited to be welcoming students back soon! Here is some information about COVID-19.

     

    • Students are expected to wear mask-style facial coverings at school. Masks with filter valves, neck gaiters/buffs, and bandanas are not permitted.
      • Please ensure that your child’s initials are on their mask. They should also have a spare with them. 
      • If your child is unable to wear a mask-style facial covering, please email me at jdallamura@ewsd.org. A form will need to be completed by you and your child’s healthcare provider. This will also need to be completed if your child needs to wear a face shield. 

     

    • Families will conduct daily health monitoring of COVID-19 symptoms at home. Students will have their temperatures taken before entering the school building (prior to boarding the bus or at school). More information about both of these topics will be coming soon.

     

    • If your child has a new diagnosis of asthma or allergies, please ensure that a note is faxed to me at 879-8175. 

     

    • Your child should not come to school if they are ill, they are awaiting COVID-19 results, or they are a close contact of someone with COVID-19.

     

    Please email me if you have any questions about COVID-19 or other health concerns.

     

    Thank you!

  • Washing hands COVID-19 and Our Schools

    Your EWSD nurses are here to support the health and wellness of our entire school community. We are all aware of the prolonged flu season and the novel coronavirus, COVID-19.  The District continues to follow preventative and response guidelines offered by the Vermont Department of Health (VDH) and Vermont Agency of Education (AOE).

    Your building nurse is available for any questions or concerns you may have regarding any illness or symptoms.

Healthy Children, Healthy School

  • When to Stay Home

    As the ADL community, we are all responsible for the health and safety of our students. Please reference the following list of symptoms that will help determine whether your child needs to be kept out of school:

    • Fever, over 100 degrees, currently or within previous 24 hours
    • Diarrhea or vomiting, currently or within the previous 24 hours
    • Persistent sore throat with fever or enlarged tonsils/glands
    • Undetermined rash
    • Red, itchy eyes with drainage

    Please do not send your child back to school until they've been symptom-free for at least 24 hours. 

    Adhering to these guidelines will help to keep our students and staff members healthy throughout the school year! 

    Immunizations 

    All students are required to have an up-to-date immunization record or a signed exemption form (required annually) for school entry.

    Physicals

    Students are encouraged to have a physical with their pediatrician and a check up with their dentist every year.

    Students who would like to participate in sports activities are required to have a sports physical every two years.
