11/1/2020 - Call Out Transcript
Good evening Homer Families.
The Calhoun County Public Health Department notified our district on November 1, 2020 of a School Associated Case of COVID-19. A "School Associated Case" means a probable or confirmed case of COVID-19 amongst students, teachers, staff members, coaches, volunteers, or any other person who was present on school property, or at a school function under circumstances that may result in the transmission or contraction of COVID-19 during the infectious period.
Persons who have been identified as close contacts to the School Associated Case have been informed directly by the Calhoun County Public Health Department or the school district. If you have not received communication from the health department or school district, you are not impacted. No further action is required and you do not need to contact the school.
Please know that we are moving forward under the guidance of the Calhoun County Public Health Department and that all measures have been taken to protect the wellbeing of your children. Please monitor for onset of symptoms related to COVID-19, including cough, shortness of breath, fever (a temperature above 100.4), chills, repeated shaking with chills, muscle pain, headache, sore throat, new loss of taste or smell. If you note any change in the health of your child, please call your regular medical provider.
School will be in session tomorrow for all students as regularly scheduled.
Thank you.
