As you know, the Federal COVID-19 Public Health Emergency has ended and all remaining state epidemic orders have been rescinded. This, however, does not change the recommendation to take precautions to prevent the spread of COVID-19, such as isolation and masks. The expectation is that staff, students, and family members will follow the recommended guidelines regarding COVID-19. With that said, at this time, for the 2023-24 school year, COVID-19 positive cases will no longer be monitored at the District level and timelines will not be provided. Please see below for next steps when a positive case is reported to you:

· Report absence and subsequent absences in Skyward as Ill-Excused.

· Report the number of positive cases to the Oakland County Health Division as part of the your building’s weekly aggregate counts via their online portal.

· Advise families to follow recommended guidance from their physician, the Centers for Disease Control, Michigan Department of Health and Human Services and/or the Oakland County Health Division.

· COVID cases no longer need to be reported on the WLCSD COVID Report Form, nor do they need to be reported to the corresponding teacher(s)/class(es).

· Building office staff will not be required to track and monitor COVID isolation timelines, nor should they give COVID-19 guidance.

· COVID-19 questions or concerns should be directed to their physician or the Oakland County Nurse On Call Line at 800-848-5533.

· Questions regarding protocol within the District should be directed to Ms. Kelly Baier - Human Resources or Mrs. Tacoma Corbin - District Nurse.

We make every effort to prevent the spreading of head lice. Please note that head lice is a nuisance and not an issue of cleanliness or hygiene. The incubation period for head lice is several days or weeks. Eggs hatch in 7-10 days. Maturity reached in two weeks. The period of communicability is until lice and viable eggs are destroyed. We rely on our families to report cases of head lice immediately so we can take the appropriate action to address this issue. When a case is reported, a letter will be sent home with children in that classroom. Students found to have head lice will be sent home at the end of the school day and not permitted to return to school until the first treatment is completed and all nits are gone. WLCSD is a nit free District.

If your child will be absent, please call the Smart Attendance Hotline (248) 956-3510 as soon as possible. If you know of a vacation or pre planned days off, you can leave those dates on the hotline as well.

If you have not called your child in by 9:30 a.m., you will receive a call from Mrs Gray to verify that your student is not at school for the day. Thank you for partnering with us in keeping your children safe and accounted for.
