Greetings, GES Families!
As mentioned last week, the Friday newsletter will now include updates from our local Public Health team, Grace Grinager and Jodi Tervo Roberts. Here is the latest from yesterday's update: If your child is feeling ill, and has symptoms of COVID-19, please get them tested. There are currently 2 options. Please note that it is important to stay home when you are sick. Also, when testing for COVID-19, please stay home until you receive a negative test result. If your test is positive, and you tested through Vault or at Sawtooth Mountain Clinic, Public Health will be in touch with you about the next steps for you and your family. Local testing: Symptomatic testing: Sawtooth Mountain Clinic: 218-387-2330. COVID-19 Updates - Sawtooth Mountain Clinic Weekend testing is currently limited. Please call the clinic on Monday to schedule testing if you become symptomatic between Saturday afternoon and Monday. Vault Saliva Tests: You can get a Vault test from the school (while supplies last), OR you can order one through the MDH website: COVID-19 Test at Home - Minnesota Dept. of Health (state.mn.us) Mail-In saliva tests are completed using a zoom link. Please use your home address (not a P.O. Box), as these are delivered to your home via UPS. |
