Survey Results
Thank you for taking the time to fill out the survey regarding the change of the end of the day bus pick up. Based on the survey results, BOSE has decided to maintain our 3:12 dismissal time. If your family needs to make use of the public school bus pick up at 2:38, our teachers will ensure your child is ready to go and minimize what they miss out on.
If you have any further questions, please feel free to reach out to your child’s classroom teacher or Mrs. Van Houten (svanhouten@trinitybelleplaine.org).
School Closings for Weather
Since the public school district is going to a distance learning format, we will not be able to follow their lead when snowstorms hit. If we should decide to have a delayed start, early dismissal, or call off school for a full day due to weather, a teacher will reach out to each family to communicate any changes to our school day. Please remember, if the school day is shortened for weather, that Trinity Care will be cancelled for that portion of the day.
Trinity Care
Please continue to register your child/ren for Trinity Care up to 2 weeks in advance. Additional directions are given in the Google spreadsheet.
Cold and Flu Season
Many of you may be wondering what to do when your child develops new symptoms that most likely is related to a typical cold but are also possible symptoms related to COVID-19. According to the most current guidelines, if your child has one of the following symptoms, then they need to remain home for at least 10 days unless a health care provider clears your child to return to school:
- a fever of 100.4 or greater
- new or worsening cough
- difficulty breathing
- a new loss of taste and smell
Additionally, all siblings must also remain home for 10 days or until a health care provider gives the ok. Please contact Susan Van Houten or your child’s teacher with any questions or for more information.
Daily at-home Health Check
Please continue to check your child’s temperature before leaving for school to verify they do not have a fever of 100.4 degrees or more. (Do not medicate your child and send them.)
Also, please perform a visual check on your child for the following conditions:
- Flushed Cheeks
- Rapid Breathing/Difficulty Breathing
- Fatigue
- Extreme Fussiness
- Runny Nose
- Excessive Cough
- Sneezing
- Rash
Please note that students will be admitted into school if these symptoms are connected to a pre-existing condition or diagnosis not related to COVID (e.g., norovirus, strep throat) and are deemed safe by a health care provider.
