Grandparents/Special Person Day

At this time, we are still limiting the number of visitors that come and go during the school day.  Therefore, we have decided not to hold our annual Grandparents/Special Person Day this year.  Hopefully, next year we will be able to resume this tradition.

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.  


For more information or questions on whether you should send your child to school, please contact Susan Van Houten or your child’s classroom teacher.

Trinity Care
