As we strive to keep Lees Corner as safe as possible, it is a good time to review the Health Screening Commitment Form. that was signed and submitted for in-person instruction.

Feeling feverish and/or having chills (if documented temperature/fever of 100.4F or greater)
- A new cough not due to another health condition
- Fatigue (more tired than usual)
- Nasal congestion or runny nose
- Headache
- A new sore throat not due to another health condition
- New chills not due to another health condition
- New muscle pain not due to another health condition or that may have been caused by a specific activity such as physical exercise
- New loss of taste or smell, new onset of poor appetite or poor feeding
- Abdominal pain, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting
The commitment form is also available in English, Amharic, Arabic, Chinese, Farsi, Korean, Spanish, Urdu, and Vietnamese.
Let’s work together to keep Lees Corner safe!
