Week Ending Feb 18

TPH Updated Covid-19 screening tool:

Toronto Public Health has updated their COVID-19 screening tool for children, students and adults for immediate use. Notably, this is now a single, universal screening tool for all ages – students and staff. There is also a significant change for people who have had a confirmed COVID-19 infection within the past 90 days and not needing to self-isolate if, for example, someone in the home has symptoms. And, the travel section refers directly to the federal travel pages as changes continue to be made.

Please do this health screening daily before coming to school and use either the paper Health Pass or the TDSB Health Screening App or https://tdsb.service-now.com/tswp to complete the verification of your screening, each day. 

One of the most important things we can do to slow the spread of COVID-19 is to screen ourselves daily for symptoms and also follow the circumstances public health identifies you should stay home. Thank you for your continued support in keeping our schools and workplaces safe and healthy.

Random Acts of Kindness Week Wrap-up:

Thank you to all that participated in Davisville's Random Acts of Kindness this past week.
