Reminder: School is in session on Veterans Day, Thursday, November 11. In observance of Veterans Day, we would like to recognize District 19 community members, alumni, and staff who have served. Every year we have looked forward to hosting a District 19 in-person Veterans Day Celebration. Sadly, due to these unprecedented times we have decided it was best to prepare an alternate way to honor our Veterans. We explored many options and have decided upon the events listed in the poster. We want to thank everyone for your cooperation and understanding and truly look forward to returning to our in-person Veterans Day celebration tradition next year.

District 19 has 2 positive cases of COVID for a total of 11 reported for the 2021-2022 school year. The people that need to know have already been contacted. Therefore, if no one has spoken to you personally, this doesn't affect you, and there is no need for concern. All steps and protocols have been taken and are being followed. We wanted to remind you that we aim to remain transparent and informative through this process. We appreciate your continued flexibility during this time. Please be vigilant in understanding the procedure for determining when our school community must be informed of a positive COVID case. We will only notify those individuals who are considered close contacts to a positive case. It is critical that we not disclose positive cases to anyone other than those being directly impacted or at risk. If you have any questions or concerns, please reach out.
Per our fall reopening guide, it’s important to know that the district will not send daily emails regarding each individual positive case. The district will update positive cases on Fridays if/when new cases occur.

El Distrito 19 tiene 2 casos positivos de COVID para un total de 9 reportados para el año escolar 2021-2022. Las personas que necesitan saber ya han sido contactadas. Por lo tanto, si nadie te ha hablado personalmente, esto no te afecta y no hay por qué preocuparte. Se han tomado y se siguen todos los pasos y protocolos. Queríamos recordarles que nuestro objetivo es ser transparentes e informativos a través de este proceso. Agradecemos su continua flexibilidad durante este tiempo. Esté atento para comprender el procedimiento para determinar cuándo nuestra comunidad escolar debe ser informada de un caso de COVID positivo. Solo notificaremos a aquellas personas que se consideren contactos cercanos a un caso positivo. Es fundamental que no divulguemos casos positivos a nadie más que aquellos que estén directamente afectados o en riesgo. Si tiene alguna pregunta o inquietud, comuníquese con nosotros.
Según nuestra guía de reapertura de otoño, es importante saber que el distrito no enviará correos electrónicos diarios con respecto a cada caso positivo individual. El distrito actualizará los casos positivos los viernes si / cuando ocurran nuevos casos.
Tomorrow 10/29 for the Halloween Parade in the event it rains a message will go out by noon informing parents if we are forced to cancel due to weather. Since we do not have room in the hallways, the student parade inside the Elementary building will be broadcasted on FB Live. Pick up will resume as normal. Mañana 29/10 para el Desfile de Halloween, en caso de que llueva, se enviará un mensaje al mediodía informando a los padres si nos vemos obligados a cancelar debido al clima. Como no tenemos espacio en los pasillos, el desfile de estudiantes dentro del edificio de la Primaria se transmitirá en FB Live. La recogida se reanudará con normalidad.
