COVID guidelines have changed this year. We are now treating it like a respiratory illness. The Ohio Department of Health recommends we follow CDC guidelines. These recommended guidelines say:
They should be 24 hours fever free without the use of fever-reducing medication (ibuprofen, tylenol, etc) AND
Symptoms should be improving
It is recommended that when they return, they wear a mask, but again not required.
Therefore, we will not be using the COVID Exempt code this year. Instead it will be parent excused days or medical excused days if they have a note from a doctors office. Below is the link to the CDC website where the information can be found.
