Safety, Health & Wellness

Montgomery School monitors various metrics and the guidance of health officials to create policies and procedures to keep our community safe. Montgomery School's safety protocols and recommendations are outlined below and are based on the CDC COVID Guidance for Schools:

• We encourage families to stay up to date on COVID-19 vaccines.
• Parents and guardians are asked to monitor their child’s health before going to school each day, and keep their child home if they are sick or display symptoms of COVID-19. If a child displays symptoms while at school, a parent/guardian will be called. 

• If a person tests positive for COVID-19, they should stay home until they’ve been fever-free without medication for at least 24 hours and their symptoms have been improving for 24 hours. After that, the CDC recommends taking additional precautions for the next five days — including improving ventilation, masking and limiting close contact with others — to lower the risk of spreading the virus.

• Masks are welcome. We understand the decision to wear or not wear a mask is not as straightforward as it seems. Montgomery teachers and staff take special care to promote an environment where individual choices about masking are treated with respect and care.

We ask members of our community to join us in taking the necessary steps to keep your family and those around you safe and healthy. Please refer to the CDC guidelines for the latest information and updates.
