Confirmed Covid-19 Case at Nackawic Elementary School - November 19, 2021
Body:
November 19, 2021
Dear Parents and Guardians,
Today we were informed of a
positive Covid-19 case at Nackawic Elementary School. We have been in
contact with Public Health officials to identify the students and school
personnel who may have been in contact with the case.
Anyone identified as a close
contact has received a letter from Public Health with specific instructions on
what to do next. The letter was sent by the school principal earlier this evening.
All students should plan to attend school on Monday, November 22,
unless they are self-isolating.
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 health-related
questions, please write to
COVID-19NB@gnb.ca
Thank you for your continued
support as we respond to the pandemic.
Sincerely,
Jay Colpitts, Director of
Schools for Covid-19 Response
