apart, we should not see as many quarantines
from the cafeteria.

Next, we look at the bus, morning, afternoon,
and, when needed, sporting transportation. At
the start of the year, Public Health looked at
quarantining the student sitting with the positive
case and up to 11 other students sitting around
them. They have recently changed their policy
to quarantine only the student sitting with the
positive case and the student sitting across from
them. If the positive case sits alone and next to
a window and the person sitting across from
them also sits alone and against the window,
this person may not be quarantined. It also
depends on the length of the bus ride as well as
if masks were worn.

We also try to talk to the student and the parent
to see if they have additional information that we
need to consider or investigate. This process is
not quick but is very important. I cannot say
students have not picked the virus up here at
school, but I can say that we continue to create
the safest place possible.                                  Principal’s Message
We have a few different outcomes when a
student is identified as a possible
exposure. They may have to quarantine for ten
days from the last exposure to the positive case,
or they may only get a phone call asking them to
monitor for symptoms and get tested if they start
not feeling well. This is all dependent on what
the investigation reveals.

response to the gift.

I gave my mom myself which was the best gift.
Now that I am older I am able to help her with
things. I can help her play fight against my dad
so she can win. I am a good gift for my mom
because I can watch my baby brother Owen,
wash the dishes, put water in the fridge, and can
cook mac and cheese. I am a good gift because I
can help my mom with many things around the
house. (My baby brother Owen is a good gift
too.)

Elementary Basketball will be starting in
January. We will be having a 5th grade

at all times in the school building. Coach
Pierson and Coach Gonyo will send home

Few quick reminders as we head into winter.
Please be sure to pack snow clothes and extra
clothes should your child get wet while playing
out in the snow. I have limited extra clothing
here in the health office, so please remember to
pack extras for your little ones.

November brought some hopeful news with the
emergency approval for the COVID-19 Pfizer
vaccine for children 5-11. I would encourage
everyone who is interested or even unsure, to
discuss this with their child's pediatrician or
health care provider. There are many
opportunities to receive this should you be
interested in it for your child.
There are also many places offering booster
COVID-19 vaccines for anyone in need. Please
visit the following site from Warren County
Public health for information on vaccine clinics
being offered through them:
https://warren-county-ny-covid-19-
warrencountyny.hub.arcgis.com/pages/vaccines
Walgreens in North Creek is also offering th
COVID-19 vaccine for ages 5 and up. It is very
easy to book online as well.
Here is the link:
https://www.walgreens.com/findcare/vaccination
/covid/19/landing

Please be sure to keep your child(ren) home if
they are sick and have them evaluated.

Hope you all enjoy your holidays this month!

As always, please contact me with any questions
or concerns. I will be happy to answer or find the
answers for you!

Be well,

Over 1,200,000 Families Did This!

Over 1,200,000 families have signed up to receive free children’s books for their children. This includes nearly
100 families in the Town of Johnsburg who have also enrolled their kids in the Imagination Library program.
And it’s free and easy! Dolly Parton started an international program, Imagination Library, for any child from
birth until their 5th birthday to have a quality children’s book mailed directly to their home each month. She
understands the value of books in the life of a child. There is no cost to you because our local chapter receives
generous grant funding from the Glenn and Carol Pearsall Foundation as well as the Charles R. Wood
Foundation. Interested? Just sign up… registration forms are available at JCS, the town library, or attached to
the monthly JCS Newsletter. Thanks, Ann Arsenault Imagination Library, Johnsburg Chapter
