Re: COVID-19 Updates
Dear Inter-Lakes Families,
I hope this correspondence finds you well. Below you will learn of a total four (4) individuals within our community being impacted by COVID-19. I want to extend our well wishes to them and their families. As each case is unique, I have tried to explain the information and our response accordingly. Due to the timing and circumstances, there is a limited impact to our normal operations.
Late this afternoon, we learned of the following:
- Confirmed positive case of COVID-19 for a member of the Inter-Lakes Elementary School community. The individual was last in school on Thursday and became symptomatic yesterday, Sunday. As a result of the timing, there are no school based close contacts or need to make any adjustments at the school level. Our COVID-19 Dashboard has been updated to reflect this active case.
- A spectator at the Inter-Lakes Middle/High School (JV/V) Boys Basketball game on Friday night has tested positive for COVID-19 and their attendance at the game is considered to be within their infectious period. Additionally, out of concern we are acting as if a member of the team is positive (although we have not received confirmation) and conducting a review of close contacts related to the team member as well as the spectator. Additional time will be needed to complete this process as a result the School Administration and the Athletic Director will be calling families of the Boys Basketball Team to discuss not practicing/playing games today and if needed, staying home from school tomorrow while contact tracing/information is finalized. Additionally, any potential in school close contacts and others who may have been in a shared space will be contacted. Mr. Currier, Principal, will send an email to Inter-Lakes Middle/High School families once all contact has been made, so families will not have to worry. Our COVID-19 Dashboard has not been updated to reflect a member of the school at this time as we await confirmation.
- A member of the Inter-Lakes Middle/High School community has tested positive for COVID-19. This individual was last in school on Wednesday of last week and was not considered to be in school during an infectious period as a result there are no school based close contacts or need to make any adjustments. Our COVID-19 Dashboard has been updated to reflect this active case.
I did not send a Honeywell Instant Alert in addition to this letter as there is no immediate issue. I recognize that Instant Alerts can raise anxiety levels and did not want to do that unnecessarily.
I wish your families well and thank you for your ongoing partnership and support. Be well, Inter-Lakes.
Respectfully,
Mary A. Moriarty
