COVID-19 Update
Last week, the state redefined the qualifying levels within its COVID-19 color matrix based on vaccinations rates. With the redefinition, Placer County has now moved from the ‘purple tier’ into the ‘red’ tier. Our current reopening plan specifies a return to a ‘5 day, full day’ instructional delivery model when Placer County has reached a sustained ‘orange’ status. Assuming we receive state permission, we are making plans for an eventual switch to ‘5 day’ this spring. Two weeks ago I sent a very detailed ‘state of our school operations' during COVID letter that explains the variables we’re still working through. If you missed it, it is available here.
COVID-19 is still prevalent within our community. Over the past 7 days at Whitney H.S., for example, there’s been 11 cases. We need to continue to be diligent, and our weekly reminder about our basic COVID-19 protocols regarding student/staff illness and quarantines is available here.
