Parent Letters

Communicating with families keeps students healthy.

Parent letters are an important tool for keeping parents and guardians informed. They help respond quickly to a potential outbreak, and can limit exposure. They alert, inform and guide appropriate actions.

Schools and childcare facilities

Use these letters to inform staff and families about potential student exposure to a communicable disease. They include information on symptoms to look for, steps to prevent spreading and exclusion recommendations (when applicable).
