Pre-Alert
Letter to Parents
November 29, 2020
Dear Parent/Guardian,
We have been notified by a family
or staff member that a positive case of COVID-19 has been diagnosed in an
individual from Marion Carson School. At this time, the school does not have
official confirmation from Alberta Health Services (AHS).
The school has already contacted
each family or staff member affected by the positive case, and AHS will be
following up only with those individuals. If you were not contacted, your
child(ren) are not affected by the positive case.
Our school remains open to in-person learning for all students,
and we are working to ensure necessary measures continue to be in place to protect
all staff and students. This includes the cleaning and disinfecting of all
items touched by the individual, and the removal and storage of all items that
cannot be cleaned and disinfected (paper, books, etc.) in a sealed
container for a minimum of 72 hours.
All students impacted by the
positive case will be supported in maintaining course work during the
designated period online. They will not join Hub online learning.
We remind parents/guardians of students to monitor for any signs
or symptoms of COVID-19.The Alberta Health daily checklist can be found here.
Please remember to complete the checklist each day prior to attending school.
If you/your child has any of the symptoms of illness listed on
the Alberta Health daily checklist, please fill out the online Alberta
Health Services COVID-19 self-assessment or call Health Link at 811 and
stay home/keep your child at home.
We will continue to provide additional information to parents /
guardians as it is available.
Sincerely,
David Watson, Principal
