This week at Houma Christian....
OVERVIEW & PURPOSE:
Houma Christian School will be reopening to all students on Monday, October 4th. We are excited to have our students and staff back on campus.
COVID Mandates:
Louisiana is still under an extended mask mandate by Governor John Bel Edwards. HCS will continue the same mask policy as before Hurricane Ida. All students (except those with mask exemptions) are required to wear a mask indoors when in close contact to other students or staff (six feet or closer).
State Superintendent Cade Brumley did offer schools and school districts a parent option to the mandatory close contact quarantine policy. HCS will offer this option. All students who test positive for Covid still need to isolate at home for 10 full days and are no longer contagious, but those students who are close contacts are no longer mandated to quarantine. If the close contact does not have any symptoms (headache, dry repetitive cough, fever of 100.4 or greater, difficulty of breathing, shortness of breath, etc) , the parent can opt to send their child back to school the following school day with a signed close contact notification letter. HCS does encourage parents to have their child tested for Covid if they are a close contact. Parents of close contacts will be notified by the school nurse with a letter to be sent home and signed.
Houma Christian School will follow the new parent option as long as the Covid cases continue to trend downward and there are not steep increases in cases.
Reminder: The revised calendar including makeup days &additional minutes are posted on both the website and app. Also, tonight at 11pm is the deadline for ordering lunch for next week.
We are so excited to announce that our first HCS spirit day will be Friday the 8th! The entire student body is welcomed to participate. The theme is SPORTS (see the flyer for all the details). On Saturday Oct 9th our varsity football team will be playing at Thomas Jefferson at 2pm.
