Case: COVID Positive
A teacher found out a child in the 5th grade POD tested positive for COVID. The school administration said the building was being cleaned over the weekend but was not notifying student's families that were not in the same classroom as the child. Yet, the teacher knows the child who tested positive shares the same P.E and Art class as her students. This teacher is also very aware that a few children in her class have preexisting conditions, as well as a few of her students, are being raised by their grandparents. Shes worried the school administration isn't doing enough to inform her student's families. She's fearful or reaching out to her student's parents and losing her job. What does she do?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I think the teacher should speak with administration first and voice her concerns, this isn't something to be taken lightly and a lot of people can be affected. This is a serious issue especially for students who have preexisting conditions & those who live with older family members. Not telling families could be jeopardizing a lot of people's health. There also should be guidelines set by the district/ county in cases like this, so the teacher should research what the protocol is and follow/ present this information to administrators. |

Comments: I think this is the best solution to the issue at hand, this is not a light situation and should be taken very seriously in all aspects. The administration should hear out your views and will most likely act on the matter. District also should be able to help if the administration does not. |

Comments: I agree with this assessment. We are in a pandemic right now and we cannot take it lightly. I like this approach because you are going through the proper chain of command. If you just go and tell the parents then that could cause panic and a lot of other issues that could have been prevented. |

Comments: I think this would be the best course of action. Teachers have the responsibility of protecting their students. Knowing that the COVID 19-positive student comes into close contact with her students gives her a good reason to voice her concerns with administration. She should document her correspondence so that if anything it falls back on administration for not doing their job. |
