Dear Parents/Guardians,
On February 18th, the school used a Pre-Alert message to notify our
community of a positive case of COVID-19 that had been reported by a family
or staff member. At that time, the school did not have official confirmation from
Alberta Health Services (AHS). The purpose of this message is to inform you
that AHS has now confirmed this case.
The school had already contacted each family or staff member affected by the
positive case and now, AHS will follow up. If you were not identified as a close
contact, then your child(ren) were not affected by the positive case.
We remind parents/guardians of students to monitor for any signs or symptoms
of COVID-19. The Alberta Health daily checklist can be found on the CBE
Covid-19 information page at https://myhealth.alberta.ca/journey/covid- 19/Pages/COVID-Self-Assessment.aspx
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,
Michelle Brinson
Principal, Northern Lights School
