Requirements that remain in place
- It’s important that students and staff stay home if they are unwell.
- Daily student attendance reporting for all schools must continue to be reported by 4pm each day, and weekly for preschools.
- Adults, including parents must continue to physical distance wherever possible, including at school pick up and drop off or when attending school
