Please refer to the guidelines for further details. Stop the Spread How can you help? 1. If your child is feeling ill or displaying any potential symptoms, please err on the side of caution and keep them home. Every student does have 10 absences that a parent can write a note for making them excused. This is per semester, so you don’t have to worry. Also, at home a student can log into eCampus/Canvas and stay up to date on the class material. 2. If your child has recently been tested for COVID-19 due to symptoms, has symptoms, or potential exposure, please contact our school nurse at merletdz@scps.k12.fl.us or 407-796-2074. 3. If your student tests positive, please immediately contact Tanya Cameron at 407-320-4008 or call the school at 407-320-4050.
