COVID-19 Letter to Families
COVID Notification Letter 2-28-2021.pdf
Dear M.S. 158 Marie Curie at 46-35 OCEANIA STREET Community:
The NYC Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) and the NYC Test + Trace Corps
(T2) have determined that a member of our school community has tested positive for COVID19, and may have exposed others while at school.
Below you will find guidance on next steps that will help keep you, your child, and our school
community healthy and safe. The information below reflects the expertise of DOHMH, T2, and
the New York City Department of Education (DOE).
What Happens Now?
● All students and staff in the affected room(s) with the individual who tested positive are
considered “close contacts,” and have been notified of the need to quarantine for 10 days from
their last contact with the person who tested positive. These students and staff will transition
to fully remote teaching and learning for this period.
● T2 and DOHMH will complete their investigation to identify and notify any other close
contacts in the building, who will also need to quarantine for 10 days.
● Anyone with a positive COVID-19 test will not return to the school until they are no longer
infectious.
● All areas visited by the person with COVID-19 will be deep cleaned, disinfected, and
reopened.
● If your child is feeling sick, keep them at home.
How do we stay healthy?
Please remember to follow these important “Core Four” actions to prevent COVID-19
transmission:
1. Stay home if sick (except to get essential medical care, including COVID-19 testing).
2. Practice social distancing: Stay at least 6 feet away from people who are not members of
your household.
3. Wear a face covering to reduce the spread of COVID-19.
4. Practice healthy hand hygiene: Wash your hands often or use an alcohol-based hand
sanitizer; avoid touching your face; and cover your cough or sneeze with your arm, not your
hands.
How can I stay updated?
We will continue to closely follow directions from public health experts and proactively
update you on any measures we are taking. To ensure we can reach you via text and email,
please create a New York City Schools Account (NYCSA) as soon as possible by visiting
schools.nyc.gov/nycsa.
To help New Yorkers quarantine, the NYC Test + Trace Corps partners with community-based
organizations to connect individuals to resources like food, medicine, and health care. To
connect with resources, you can call 1-212-COVID19 (212-268-4319). For additional
information on COVID-19, visit schools.nyc.gov/coronavirus or call 311.
Sincerely,
Peter Mc Hugh

You can create a basic account online from any computer, phone, or tablet. All you need to do is:
-
Set up the account by:

Entering your name and email address,

answering a few brief security questions so you can reset the password if you forget it.
