Vitalina:
-Right now we have had 3 people leave saying that a family member got tested positive

- The board discussed the option to provide Covid Leave pay for up to 10 days of leave to employees that either received a positive Covid test result or need to quarantine due to being in close contact to a positive case. The school will follow guidance from the FFCRA for leave for employees/employers and current option expires at the end of December 2020.
