Providence COVID Update
We currently have 6 Covid-19 positive cases. While the CDC guidelines for the length of quarantine have been updated, Providence is maintaining our current policy at this time. Administration and nurses are constantly reviewing guidelines by the CDC and local health officials as well as our Providence community numbers. We will update all Providence families as soon as changes are made. In addition, please make sure your child has a mask for school. While we have replacements for broken or soiled masks, we do not have enough supply to hand them out for the large amount of students who are forgetting them. Please consider packing an extra in your child’s backpack. Thank you for your understanding as we strive to keep the students and staff healthy through this holiday season.
