NOTICE-Dec. 4, 2020 Dear Bobcat Community, We want to inform you that an individual who has been physically present and around the Boys Basketball team within the last two weeks has tested positive for COVID-19. Per privacy guidelines, more specific information cannot be shared. Out of the abundance of caution, the gym will be closed until Dec. 7 and all boys’ basketball practices and events will be temporarily suspended while we continue to work with the Department of Health and conduct all necessary contact tracing. A separate communication will be provided to all District members deemed to have been in “close contact”, as defined by the state and CDC, with this individual. This is a fluid situation and the District will continue to take all necessary actions to minimize the transmission of the COVID-19 virus. The District is cleaning and disinfecting the areas identified pursuant to CDC guidelines. As an individual, please continue to use best efforts to reduce the risk of spreading the virus such as washing hands frequently for at least 20 seconds, using hand sanitizer, wearing masks, staying home when you are sick, and should you feel the urge to cough or sneeze, cover your mouth and nose. We urge you to monitor your own health and to immediately seek medical attention should you experience any COVID-19 symptoms. Symptoms of COVID-19 have been reported to be: fever, shortness of breath, cough, chills, fatigue, loss of taste or smell, chest pain, new confusion, and blush lips or face. Less common symptoms are: achiness, nasal congestion, sore throat, runny nose, and gastrointestinal symptoms. In the event you begin to experience COVID-19 symptoms, test positive for COVID-19, or have come in close contact with a confirmed positive case, contact your physician immediately for guidance. Thank you and stay safe. Jodi Armstrong
