FCPS Continues to Monitor Health Data for COVID-19
FCPS is monitoring COVID-19 health data every day to make decisions on when students and staff can return for in-person learning. The school division posts the regional health data collected by the Virginia Department of Health on the COVID-19 Health Metrics web page and monitors two core indicators related to coronavirus infections: the number of COVID-19 cases per 100,000 people and the percentage of people who test positive for COVID-19. Both indicators are increasing in Northern Virginia.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has set thresholds to help school communities understand the risk of introduction and transmission of COVID-19 in schools. View thresholds for Groups 1-6.
Today’s numbers exceed the thresholds for students and staff in Groups 4-8 to return to in-person learning. FCPS will continue to monitor community health data closely, and open schools for in-person instruction as soon as we are able to ensure the safety of students, teachers, and other staff.
School Wide TalkingPoints Class
Weyanoke teachers use the TalkingPoints app to communicate information to our families. If you have not already done so, please download the free TalkingPoints Parents app in your phone’s app store and sign up with your child’s teacher for an easy way to communicate. We are happy to announce that our parent liaison, Sandra Roldan Lloret, has also created a school-wide TalkingPoints class where she will give information on important school, family and community topics. Please use her class code S1QMYZ to sign up.
The following link will help you to set-up the app.
