I hope you enjoyed a relaxing winter break. Although schools were closed, LMSD administrators have been closely monitoring the COVID-19 situation and meeting with local health officials. As I stated in my communication prior to break, our goal is to continue in-person instruction Several developments over this past week have the potential to influence how we will be able to do that.
The virus is impacting both the unvaccinated and our highly vaccinated staff and students. Although vaccinated individuals do not typically develop serious illness, they still must isolate when infected. Given the high number of current reported cases, LMSD's ability to conduct contact tracing and testing will be extremely taxed, if even possible.Monday, January 3, 2022, there will be no school for students.
Assess our ability to staff schools and decide which schools, if any, may need to go virtual based on safety/supervision needs, taking into account staff who are currently in isolation/quarantine or who may need to do so.Update all nursing staff regarding the new reporting, quarantine/isolation guidelines and their role in managing the increased volume of questions and contact-tracing due to the current surge.
