Updated Covid Protocol: Thank you for your partnership in helping keep our school a safe place to learn. Our district works closely with the local Health Department, the Office of Emergency Management, and the Illinois Department of Public Health to keep our school running efficiently with all safety procotocols in place. Close contacts are defined as an individual not fully vaccinated who was within 6 feet of an infected person for a cumulative total of 15 minutes or more in a 24-hour period. A student who was within 3-6 feet of a confirmed or probable case in a classroom setting is not a close contact if they were consistently masked. Our district has implemented many safety measures to try to eliminate as many close contacts as possible. However due to circumstances beyond our control, such as transportation, we cannot always maintain the 3 foot social distancing.
Under these circumstances, contact tracing could still occur within the school district. Please understand our health and safety is important to the Annawan School District and we thank you for cooperation as always!
