Two Important Announcements

Hello Everyone,

We have two important announcements from New York State today (Monday, April 6, 2020):

1 School buildings and grounds will be closed through April 29th as per the directive of the Governor. Distance learning, food distribution, and daycare for health workers will continue to be provided during this time.

2 Regents Exams have been cancelled for this year. Detailed guidance on what schools will need to do regarding graduation requirements is supposed to be issued by the NYS Education Department late tomorrow.

Please remember to practice social distancing and please do not congregate on the VCSD grounds. The grounds continue to be closed.

We will have more information on graduation requirements and the impact of the cancellation of the Regents exams when we hear specifics from the state. We will also discuss any updated information during the Virtual Town Hall on Wednesday, April 8th starting at 6:30 pm.

With Gratitude,
Tim

A student should stay home from school if he or she:

Has a fever of 100 degrees or more
Has had a fever above 100 degrees in the last 24 hours
Has vomited in the last 24 hours
Has had diarrhea in the last 24 hours
Has a runny nose that requires a great deal of management time
Has a persistent cough that interferes with concentration
Is too tired to engage in usual activities
Has a significantly decreased appetite
Has eye(s) that are red, watery, or draining
Has been on a medication for an infection for fewer than 24 hours

Generally, after the above listed symptoms disappear, students require an additional 24 hours to recover. If you are in doubt about whether or not to send your child to school during or following an illness, please call the health office at your child's school for advice. If your child has a persistent cough, rash, fever, bump, or other bothersome symptom, you should contact your pediatrician.
