Medical Update: Chickenpox Notice

Dear Parents and Guardians:

There has been a diagnosed case of Chickenpox (Varicella) at the school.  The Chickenpox Virus is contracted by direct contact with the skin lesions and by airborne droplets.  After discussion with the Department of Health, it has been determined that the risk of exposure in this case is low.  They have informed us that there is no need for any further action at this time.

If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to contact the school nurse.

Thank You,

MaST Schools Administration and Nursing Staff
