Dear Parent/Guardian,
In keeping with Winnsboro ISD’s practices to respond to COVID-19, we are notifying all student families that a Winnsboro Elementary School staff member, who was lab-confirmed to have COVID-19, was present on the campus of WES on August 6th, 2021. Due to privacy requirements, we will not be releasing the name of the individual or details that may identify him or her.
Any of the following symptoms indicate a possible COVID-19 infection:
Temperature of 100.0 degrees Fahrenheit or higher when taken by mouth;
Sore throat;
New uncontrolled cough that causes difficulty breathing (or, for students with a chronic allergic/asthmatic cough, a change in their cough from baseline);
Shortness of breath
Diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, or abdominal pain; or
New onset of severe headache, especially with a fever.
Fatigue
Congestion or runny nose
Significant muscle pain or ache
Loss of taste or smell
If you or any member of the Winnsboro Elementary School community start experiencing any of these symptoms in a way that is not typical, we encourage you to contact your physician. We encourage anyone in the WES community, who is lab-confirmed to have COVID-19, to please notify our school by contacting 903-342-3548.
If you have any questions or concerns, please reach out to Nurse Erika or visit our website at www.winnsboroisd.org.
Sincerely,
Dave Wilcox
