Staunton Families: The Illinois Department of Public Health recently updated their guidelines on October 13th for any individuals showing symptoms for COVID-19 and the documentation needed to return to school. We will be following these newly updated guidelines effective immediately. The new guidelines include: -Medical Evaluation and Testing are strongly recommended for ALL Persons with COVID Like Symptoms. -Send home or deny entry (and provide remote instruction) if ANY of the following symptoms are present: Fever (100.4°F or higher), new onset of moderate to severe headache, shortness of breath, new cough, sore throat, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain from unknown cause, new congestion/runny nose, new loss of sense of taste or smell, nausea, fatigue from unknown cause, muscle or body aches. -Negative COVID-19 test OR a Healthcare provider’s note indicating the negative COVID test result. -If testing is not performed due to the clinical judgment of the healthcare provider, a medical note is needed to return to school documenting that there is no clinical suspicion for COVID19 infection and indicate an alternative diagnosis with exclusion consistent with this diagnosis. -After a 10 day exclusion, a note from a parent/guardian documenting that the ill student and/or household contacts are afebrile without fever reducing medication and symptoms have improved.
