School Safety Drills
OCS complies with safety drill protocols required by Delaware’s Comprehensive School Safety Program through the Delaware Emergency Management Agency (DEMA), which includes two (2) annual lockdown drills and monthly fire/evacuation drills. We appreciate your ongoing support of these proactive measures.
Illness- Students ill from school MUST have a note sent to the main office or school nurse upon return to school. Students and staff must be fever-free and without vomiting or diarrhea for 24 hours before returning to school. Absences of 3 consecutive days or more require a note from a medical provider to be excused. Students with 10 days of absences require a note from their medical provider for every additional absence to be excused.
COVID- Students and staff testing positive for COVID may still come to school unless they have a fever. Students and staff must be fever-free and without vomiting or diarrhea for 24 hours before returning to school. It is recommended that students who test positive for COVID wear a mask for 5 days following the start of symptoms. If you feel your student is too ill to come to school, this is treated as any other illness.
