COVID Case (December 3, 2021)

07/18/22, 4:48 PM

Dear Farrell B. Howell ECE-8 School Families:

It is our priority to keep you informed of incidents related to safety. We want to make you aware that a student or staff member within 5th Grade, as well as a student or staff member within 8th Grade was diagnosed with COVID-19 from the holiday break. Neither individual was on campus during the time in which he or she would have been contagious and none of our families at school were impacted; this is simply a courtesy notice to keep you informed on the cases within our school community.

• The person diagnosed is being kept home from school until they are no longer infectious. 
• The person’s activities when they could have spread COVID-19 were assessed. 
  • Again, we did not identify any individuals in the class that would have been impacted by this case or who would need to quarantine at this time.

If you have any concerns about your health, we encourage you to contact the Denver Health School Based Health Center at 303-602-8958 (or your primary care provider) for further evaluation and possible testing.

Sincerely,

Richard Ruthersby, BSN, RN, NCSN
School Nurse, Farrell B. Howell ECE-8 School
