If your child develops even mild symptoms or you suspect they could be infected because of contact with an infected person, don’t hesitate to pull them out of school. Communicate with the other parents. Make a promise to each other to take these precautions together. Parents need to be proactive, and it’s much better to have a child miss a couple of days of school while waiting for a COVID-19 test result than to go to school and potentially spread the virus to others. Communication and a spirit of collaboration will be critical among parents at the school to help stop the spread of the virus. Alert one another immediately if your child has tested positive or your child has been in contact with someone who has.
