If you have been contacted by a school nurse because your child has been exposed to a positive COVID-19 case, please keep your child home until you are contacted by the Public Health Department with more specific details. The Public Health Department is overwhelmed with the current level of positive COVID-19 cases and quarantining in St. Lawrence County. You can expect there to be delays between the time you receive a call from the school nurse and the Public Health department. Thank you for your patience and cooperation as we work through this together.
