Great Hearts has updated our COVID mitigation plan. The primary change is the isolation period for those that have tested positive, it has been changed from 10 days to five days. Day one is the first day following the onset of symptoms or a positive test (whichever comes first). Students and employees can return on the 6^th day but must wear a mask on days 6-10 or will need to continue quarantining for this period. As always, if your child has any cold or flu-like symptoms, please keep them home and call the front desk to report the absence. For further direction, please consult the COVID mitigation plan or contact Nurse Hodgkins.
