Letter to Hau'ula 'Ohana
August 20,2020
Aloha e na 'ohana o Hau'ula,
We were made aware that a school employee was in close contact with a family member who was in close contact with a positive COVID-19 case. We are taking necessary precautions to keep our students and staff safe by following the Hawaii Department of Health (DOH) guidance. The employee will not be returning to campus and will be in quarantine until we receive documentation of a negative test result. We have notified those students and staff who may have come into close contact with the employee. Again, we have not been made aware of any positive COVID-19 cases acquired from campus. We wanted to inform you of the action steps we are taking to continue to keep our school community safe.
The Department of Health (DOH) defines close contact as being within 6 feet of the person for 15 minutes or longer or having direct contact with the infected person's secretions (e.g., coughed directly into face of contact, hugging). The DOH is the lead agency when it comes to officially notifying individuals who are considered close contacts. Continue Reading >>>
