Reopening CPS – Contact Tracing
As 2020 comes to an end, we’re looking ahead to the changes and challenges of the new year. When students and staff return to school for in-person learning, we will need to be prepared to follow a number of new procedures to keep everyone safe. This week, we want to provide you with more information on a process called contact tracing. The main goal of contact tracing is to contain the spread of COVID-19 should a case occur. To support this, all Individuals diagnosed with COVID-19 should self-report using the COVID-19 Self-Reporting Tool. If the person is a minor, parents or legal guardian may submit this form on their behalf. The district cannot act based on hearsay, speculation, or second hand COVID-19 reports.
The contact tracing process starts when a school is notified of a COVID-19 positive test result by a parent/guardian, staff or the local health department. Specifically for COVID-19, CPS looks at those who have been in close contact with an individual who's tested positive. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention define close contact as being within six feet of a COVID-19-positive person with or without a mask for 15 or more minutes within a 24-hour period.
Once CPS receives notification, a CPS Contact Tracer will begin an investigation to “trace” and determine possible exposures to the COVID-19 positive case. This includes determining if the ill individual was in a CPS building during their contagious period (two days prior to onset of symptoms or positive test if asymptomatic), and what individuals were in close contact with them. The CPS contact tracing team will email anyone who was in the building while the person was contagious. Close contacts will be advised to quarantine at home for 14 days, even if they have a negative test and free of symptoms. Individuals will receive basic public health advice and quarantine guidance. The school community will be notified if school operations are impacted.
With the help and cooperation of students, staff, and the entire CPS community, contact tracing will aid in the safe return to classroom learning. Take a look at the graphics below for a more visual explanation of this process.

I-READY DIAGNOSTIC TESTING
We will begin diagnostic testing on in Week 3 (September 21-25, 2020). Teachers will monitor students as they take the test. Please watch this short video about the test and why we give it to students at Fuller. Remember, while we know you may want to help your child, giving him/her the answers, prompting him/her, or nodding if answers are correct, this will not help your child. Teachers need accurate data about what your child can do alone to tailor instruction best to meet his/her needs.

Preserving my computer
To make sure your computer is functioning well, please be sure to shut it down (or turn it completely off) each evening. Once school is over and all homework is done, please shut down the computer, carefully closing it, allowing it to rest all night. Then, the next morning, open it carefully, turn it on, and log back in. Doing this routinely should help your computer function well each day!
