Dear Families and Staff,

On Friday March 1, 2024, the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) announced updated COVID-19 guidance. Skokie73.5 will follow this updated guidance for all students and staff.

Isolation requirements were changed from a minimum of 5 days to a minimum of 24 hours for symptoms or fever.

If an individual is has no symptoms and no fever, then isolation is not required.

“Updated Guidance: The updated Respiratory Virus Guidance recommends that people stay home and away from others until at least 24 hours after both their symptoms are getting better overall, and they have not had a fever (and are not using fever-reducing medication). Note that depending on the length of symptoms, this period could be shorter, the same, or longer than the previous guidance for COVID-19.”


See the full CDC press release for more information.

Sincerely,

Katie Orleans, R.N.
