In accordance with today’s DPH and DESE information, we will follow the CDC guideline for all individuals testing positive after December 23: 

If You Test Positive for COVID-19 (Isolate) Regardless of Vaccination Status:

  • Stay home for 5 days
  • If you have no symptoms or your symptoms are resolving after 5 days, you can leave your house.
  • Continue to wear a mask around others for 5 additional days.
  • If you have a fever, continue to stay home until your fever resolves.

    Pool Testing 

    We expect to pool test as many students as possible on Monday.  It is an enormous resource that can assist us in managing the surge.  If you have not given consent to test your child we urge you to consider participating.  You can enroll your child at:  Electronic Consent Form

    Staff Masks and Antigen Tests

    As you may have heard through the media, we are very fortunate to benefit from state provided KN95 masks and antigen tests for all staff that will be distributed prior to our return on Monday.  

     

    Close Contacts and Contact Tracing

    The state notified us today that DESE and DPH are reviewing the CDC guidance.  They will have updates to school districts by the weekend.

     

    Please continue to use the COVID email account during the break as needed: covid@concordps.org

     

    Current district case counts are available in real time on the COVID Dashboard.

     

    Have a great night!
    Best,

    Laurie
