COVID-19

HELP US KEEP PIEDMONT PUBLIC SCHOOLS HEALTHY!

  • Do not send your student to school if they are sick. This includes fever, cough, sore throat, shortness of breath, nausea, vomiting or diarrhea.
REPORT ANY ABSENCE TO YOUR STUDENT'S SCHOOL OFFICE.
 

Updated Guidance: The updated Respiratory Virus Guidance recommends that people stay home and away from others until at least 24 hours after both their symptoms are getting better overall, and they have not had a fever (and are not using fever-reducing medication). Note that depending on the length of symptoms, this period could be shorter, the same, or longer than the previous guidance for COVID-19.

These students should be marked DVP and should work from home via Schoology/Seesaw/Clever. To be marked DVP, proof of the COVID positive diagnosis is required. This can be a photo of an at-home test or results from your doctor's office. 

**We do not require students/staff to quarantine due only to exposure.**

 

Students recovering from DOCUMENTED (by a physician/provider) significant illness/surgery should be marked DVP and should access assignments via Schoology/Seesaw/Clever.

Students with DOCUMENTED (by a physician/provider) short-term illness will be marked DA (documented absence). If the absence exceeds three days, the student will be marked DVP for days 4+. The documentation should include a release/return date.

If a student is sent home due to illness, he/she should be marked DA, because the school required the student to go home.

Students may NOT be marked DVP for vacations and trips.
