Positive Cases at Pipestone School
- We have had three positive COVID cases communicated to us by parents. Parents of students in specific classrooms or on specific buses who were exposed were sent a letter on Nov 4 and/or 5 regarding this situation.
- Moving forward to deal with this situation:
- Reminding students and staff of the importance of hand hygiene, breathing etiquette,
- Reminding about the AHS directions to maintain physical distancing and co-horting where possible for our students and staff,
- Reminding about AHS direction for mask use and storage (mandatory on the bus for all students, mandatory for grade 4-6 and recommended for Kindergarten-grade 3).
- Directing people to AHS 811 with their inquiries
- As much as possible, doing outside learning and active living while students are at school
- We thank all students and staff, and especially our custodian Mrs. Huber, for cleaning and disinfecting our school as per AHS and WRPS protocols.
- Making sure that students and staff are not at school, or sent home promptly if they have signs and symptoms of COVID illness.
- Reminding parents and staff that they must use the daily checklist every day.
- Getting advise and direction from AHS and WRPS
- Careful monitoring of any visitors to our school
