COVID-19 Increase. Prescreen each day using tool [English/Spanish]

Dear Families,

Since our return from October break, we have seen an increase of Positive COVID-19 cases in our school community. We are requiring all families to prescreen their children each day before sending them to school. If your child has any COVID-19 symptoms, please do not send them to school. Please keep your child home and notify the school of the illness. We also ask that you keep your child home if anyone in your household has been confirmed/suspected with COVID-19 in the last 10 days or if your child has been notified that they have been exposed to someone who has tested positive for COVID.

Please see the prescreening tool below.

Thank you,
Christine Schieferle, Superintendent
Fillmore Unified School District

Ventura County Sheriff Media Release

Dear FUSD Families,

Today, at approximately 3:00 p.m., the Ventura County Sheriff’s Office posted the media release below. We are working in cooperation with the Ventura County Sheriff’s Department and will also have staff posted visibly outside of each school site.

It’s important to remind your children of important safety habits. Children walking to and from school should be aware of their surroundings. If they see something that is unusual, they should immediately report it to an adult, either a school staff member or the police. If your child reports something to you, report it to a school staff member, or the police.

You should also actively monitor your children’s activity on social media. Children use social media for a variety of reasons including connecting with classmates and in some cases meeting new people. Your supervision is important to ensure the content shared is appropriate. You should report suspicious activity on social media to either school officials or the police.

It’s important for us all to work together to ensure our children have a safe learning environment.

Thank you,
Christine Schieferle, Superintendent
Fillmore Unified School District
