That is it. The letter does not give any information about the person.

For the positive cases that occurred on my kids campus last year the school said there were no close contacts. I don’t know how’s that’s possible since the students sat together in classes all day. ]]> 2021-08-08 01:07:56 UTC https://padlet.com/Mireille_SafeReturn/854bx6eimjknco4z/wish/1671848333 They have an emergency meeting for teachers on the day of the positive case, then they send a letter home.

No idea how they handle informing a family if student has been exposed.

They are not considering them close contacts if they are “properly masked” as determined by admin. ]]> 2021-08-08 01:08:27 UTC https://padlet.com/Mireille_SafeReturn/854bx6eimjknco4z/wish/1671848425 my sons school just sent us a notification of a positive case and sent a letter regarding a positive case via email https://padlet.com/Mireille_SafeReturn/854bx6eimjknco4z/wish/1671848434 2021-08-08 01:08:28 UTC https://padlet.com/Mireille_SafeReturn/854bx6eimjknco4z/wish/1671848434 I think notification comes from the principal (or admin) via email, and then teachers get a notice on Infinite Campus. I know because one of my students was exposed and is now in quarantine. I teach on the Big Island. That's how I was notified, but it didn't say covid. It just said student "x" would be quarantining until such-and-such date. https://padlet.com/Mireille_SafeReturn/854bx6eimjknco4z/wish/1671848445 2021-08-08 01:08:32 UTC https://padlet.com/Mireille_SafeReturn/854bx6eimjknco4z/wish/1671848445 Teachers are informed by a google spreadsheet by office lists keikiʻs name, teacher, date of possible exposure/exposure and last date of quarantine/ok to return to school. https://padlet.com/Mireille_SafeReturn/854bx6eimjknco4z/wish/1671848514 2021-08-08 01:08:57 UTC https://padlet.com/Mireille_SafeReturn/854bx6eimjknco4z/wish/1671848514 Bulletin letter given to teachers to give to students and also sends email to parents https://padlet.com/Mireille_SafeReturn/854bx6eimjknco4z/wish/1671848560 2021-08-08 01:09:11 UTC https://padlet.com/Mireille_SafeReturn/854bx6eimjknco4z/wish/1671848560 This is ridiculous!

(our main mode of communication with all parents is e-mail). Also if there's a child who has been in contact with a positive case, even if that family has not gotten back the results yet, families let us know and the director informs all families and staff. https://padlet.com/Mireille_SafeReturn/854bx6eimjknco4z/wish/1671848843 2021-08-08 01:10:45 UTC https://padlet.com/Mireille_SafeReturn/854bx6eimjknco4z/wish/1671848843 https://padlet.com/Mireille_SafeReturn/854bx6eimjknco4z/wish/1671848892 Automated phone call ]]> 2021-08-08 01:10:56 UTC https://padlet.com/Mireille_SafeReturn/854bx6eimjknco4z/wish/1671848892 Why are schools NOT INFORMING ALL families of students exposed in schools and why can a class continue to meet even after they've had a positive student/staff in the class?? https://padlet.com/Mireille_SafeReturn/854bx6eimjknco4z/wish/1671849252 2021-08-08 01:12:52 UTC https://padlet.com/Mireille_SafeReturn/854bx6eimjknco4z/wish/1671849252 Who is responsible for the daily monitoring of close contacts in schools during their quarantine period?
