Good morning wonderful GREEN parents/guardians,

Happy New Year!

We wish you a happy New Year! We know that this past year has been full of challenges, and are hopeful that the coming year brings more certain times for the GREEN students, staff and community members. Sending all good wishes for better days ahead.

As we return to campus from the winter break, it is most important to continue screening students for any COVID symptoms before sending them back to school.

-If your student does not feel well, keep them home.

-If your student has any COVID-like symptoms, keep them home.

-If your student is unvaccinated and was a close contact to someone who was COVID positive, they must quarantine at home even if they do not have any symptoms.

-Students must quarantine for 10-days from the date of exposure, or 7-days if they have a negative PCR test that was collected on day-5 after exposure.

-Thank you for keeping our school community safe.

Friendly reminder, we monitor all Chromebook devices at all times, 24/7. The device is assigned to your child only for educational purposes.

Your student SHOULD NOT attend school if they have ANY of the common COVID-19 symptoms.

The current guidance advises staff members and students with symptoms of COVID-19 infection not to return for in-person instruction until they have met CDPH criteria to return to school for those with symptoms:

• No fever in the last 24 hours (without fever-reducing medications); and • Improvement of symptoms; and

• A negative COVID-19 PCR test OR note from doctor confirming another underlying medical condition OR note from doctor confirming another diagnosis OR at least 10 days have passed since symptom onset.

NO home tests or antigen tests accepted. Our district testing sites use PCR tests. See below about District COVID testing location days and times.

Testing is available to all HESD staff and students ONLY. The testing site is paid through special state grant funds, therefore it is NOT available to the public, including staff and student family members who are not associated with the District.

Please read the attached letter from HESD for more information.
