San Augustine ISD will be welcoming all students and employees back from Spring Break on Monday, March 16, 2020. We would like our families and community to know that SAISD has taken important steps to prepare for this return in response to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) updated framework for mitigation of COVID-19 as posted to the CDC website on Tuesday, March 10, 2020. We are also receiving correspondence and guidance from the Texas Education Agency (TEA) on a regular basis.
To date, SAISD has disinfected and thoroughly deep-cleaned all areas of each of the campuses, including all buses, district vehicles, and other areas where students or employees may congregate. We have cleaned and disinfected frequently touched surfaces and will do so daily. Hand hygiene supplies, Clorox wipes, and anti-bacterial soap will be readily available at each campus.
SAISD will continue to monitor anyone in our district who is ill or has flu-like symptoms. We are fortunate to have an RN and an LVN at our campuses who will constantly monitor this situation. If your child is ill, please keep them home from school.
Please be assured that we will keep you updated on any changes that affect your child and this district. We will also be posting updates regarding the COVID-19 virus regularly on our website www.saisd.us. Look under Departments/Health Services. Please feel free to contact us at any time.
