Parents, Due to the recent uptick in positive COVID-19 cases throughout our community and the San Luis Valley we are offering a free COVID-19 testing day for all students who want to participate and have a consent form signed. This is scheduled for this coming Thursday, April 22nd and will take place during school hours at the school. The student will be pulled out of class for less than 5 minutes while the test is collected. Results will be back in 15 minutes. Students and parents will be notified of test results IF IT IS POSITIVE. If you or your student do not hear anything from the school, their test result was negative. These tests are done by inserting a q-tip less than an inch into each nostril for 5 seconds. This does not hurt; it may make your student feel like they need to sneeze. Elementary parents- please complete the attached 2 forms and return to school asap- no later than Thursday if you would like your child tested. Middle School and High School Parents- You or your child can pick up the permission slips from the office or print them out online at: https://sites.google.com/center.k12.co.us/schoolnursecorner/covid-testing-paperwork?authuser=0 Please let us know if you have any questions!! Padres, Debido al reciente aumento en los casos positivos de COVID-19 en toda nuestra comunidad y el Valle de San Luis, estamos ofreciéndoles un día de prueba de COVID-19 gratis para todos los estudiantes que quieran participar y que tengan un formulario de consentimiento firmado. Esto está programado para el próximo jueves 22 de abril y se llevará a cabo durante el horario escolar. Se sacará al estudiante de la clase por menos de 5 minutos mientras se recoge la prueba. Los resultados estarán de vuelta en 15 minutos. Los estudiantes y los padres serán notificados de los resultados de las pruebas SI ES POSITIVO. Si usted o su estudiante no escuchan nada de la escuela, el resultado de la prueba fue negativo. Estas pruebas se realizan insertando un hisopo de menos de una pulgada en cada fosa nasal durante 5 segundos. Esto no duele; puede hacer que su estudiante sienta que necesita estornudar. Padres de primaria: complete los 2 formularios adjuntos y regrese a la escuela lo antes posible, a más tardar el jueves, si desea que su hijo sea examinado. Padres de escuela intermedia y secundaria: usted o su hijo pueden recoger las hojas de permiso en la oficina o imprimirlas en línea en: https://sites.google.com/center.k12.co.us/schoolnursecorner/covid-testing-paperwork?authuser=0 ¡Por favor, háganos saber si usted tiene alguna pregunta!

"Giving back to the communities we serve is very important to Ciello and SLVREC. In these challenging times, internet connections have become more important than ever," says Monroe Johnson, Ciello’s chief technology officer. "We hope this service is helpful to the residents of Center. We highly value our relationship with the Center School District and the Town of Center and applaud their efforts to help the community cope with these trying times.” Password for the public Wi-Fi is ciellowifi.
