Dear Parents,
Please note the below the Lyceum Kennedy Travel Policy (amended):
 
Lyceum Kennedy updated travel policy requires unvaccinated students returning from the Thanksgiving and Winter Break holidays (traveling domestic or international), to choose one of the following options and submit your child’s PCR test result (a lab-based molecular COVID-19 test).
 
1)     Follow the existing CDC recommended domestic and international protocol, or
2)     Provide Lyceum Kennedy head of school’s office with your child’s negative PCR test result. The PCR test must be taken within the New York City area after your child’s travels. As well as check if your child has any COVID-19 symptoms prior to his/her return to school. If your child traveled to one on the bordering states (New Jersey, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Vermont, or Massachusetts), PCR test results are not required.
 
Prior to traveling, please provide the school with your child’s travel plans (location and dates of travel) to the head of school's office. Please also submit which of the above options (1 or 2) you will be submitting upon your child’s return to school.
 
Lastly, the morning your child returns to school (by 7:30 am) please submit your child’s pre-screening health form (Lower SchoolMiddle & Upper School).
 
If you have any additional questions about the school’s amended travel policy, please let us know.
 
Have a great weekend.

With best regards,

Thomas E. Mitchell
Chief Operating Officer
