We had 47 Primary students (five in EC, 42 in ES) and 50 (22 in MS, 28 in HS) Secondary students choose VS this week, some because of positive Covid-related reasons and some out of caution to see, post-holiday break, how the situation evolved. We will offer a VS option for another week, through next Friday, January 28, then after that, starting Monday, January 31, expect everyone to return to face-to-face on-campus learning. We will offer VS for students who test positive, for those in a household under sanitary restriction by the Ministry of Health, and for those in close contact at school with a positive case. But all other students are expected to avail themselves of the many benefits of on-campus learning, where our biosecurity measures – sanitation, masking, distancing, ventilation, etc. – allow for high levels of risk mitigation for infection.
I wish the best for your children to have a most successful second semester of this academic year and to your family the best for a wonderful new year 2022! As always, please write to me at cds_director@cds.ed.cr or call me at 2289 0919 ext. 224 if I can do anything to help you and your family have the absolute best experience possible at CDS.
I hope you have a great weekend.
With Panther Pride,
Dr. Scott Adams, Director
