A Message from the Superintendent
As you may be aware, we have recently had a few positive cases of COVID-19. We want to let you know the procedure that we follow when we are notified of a positive case.
- The person that is positive is interviewed to learn when they were tested, where they have been, when they were last at school, etc. If it is a student, we talk also with their parents. The infected person is informed as to when they can return to school.
- We talk with the teachers of the student, and/or the staff members' co-workers, look at seating charts, activities, etc. to determine any “probable close contacts.”
- If needed, we review the video of where the person was in the building, and who was around them.
- After determining any probable close contacts, we immediately telephone them or their parents to discuss with them the need for them to quarantine, and when they can return to school.
- The parents of all other students that have a class with the infected student or staff member are sent an email to let them know that this has occurred, but that their child is not involved.
- If you do not receive a phone call or an email, your child is not affected.
- We notify the Arkansas Department of Health with the name of the infected person and the names of probable close contacts.
- We thoroughly disinfect all affected portions of the school that night.
We have also established a web page that will show the current number of cases and quarantined individuals by campus. It will be updated daily. The website is:
https://www.almasd.net/Page/5990
Please remember that Federal law restricts us from revealing the names of any individuals.
We want you to be as informed as possible and are always happy to talk with you if you have any questions.
Thank you,
David Woolly,
Superintendent
