District News: Confirmed Covid-19 Case at Bliss Carman Middle School - October 8, 2021

Title: Confirmed Covid-19 Case at Bliss Carman Middle School - October 8, 2021
Body: October 8,
2021



 

Dear Parents and Guardians of Bliss Carman
Middle School,

 

We have been informed of a positive
Covid-19 case at Bliss Carman Middle School. We are working with
Public Health officials to identify any students and school personnel who may
have been in contact with the case.

 

Anyone required to self-isolate and/or get
testing will receive a letter from Public Health with specific
instructions on what to do next. This letter will be emailed to you from your
school principal, or a designated staff member. If you are not contacted, your child can
continue with regular activities unless they are already self-isolating as
advised by Public Health.  

 

All students should plan to return to school on
Tuesday, October 12, except for those whom Public Health has identified as close
contacts and are required to self-isolate. If this changes,
you will be advised.

 

It is natural to want to know if your child may
have been exposed to the virus but to protect the privacy of students and
school personnel, details, such as names, will not be released.

 

Children and young people look to the adults in
their lives to guide them on how to react to worrying and stressful events.
Parents are encouraged to talk to their children about any anxieties and remind
them to treat one another with kindness and respect, in person and on social
media.

 

If your child is showing any symptoms of
Covid-19, you should:

 
Register
them online for a test by clicking “Get tested” on the GNB coronavirus
website (www.gnb.ca/coronavirus). OR
Contact
Tele-Care 811. The 811 operators will evaluate your child
before sending them for testing.
 

If you have questions that are health-related,
please email: COVID-19NB@gnb.ca

 

Thank you for your continued support as we
respond to the pandemic.

 

Sincerely,

 

David McTimoney, Superintendent
