NOTIFICATION OF CONFIRMED COVID-19 CASE ON CAMPUS
04/20/2021
Dear Parent/Guardian,
In keeping with Spurger ISD’s practices to respond to COVID-19, we are notifying all student families that a student member who was lab-confirmed to have COVID-19 was present on the HS/JH campus on 04/19/2021. You are receiving this notice, because you or your child was present on the campus in the two days prior to the onset of the individual’s diagnosis of COVID-19. Due to privacy requirements, we will not be releasing the name of the individual or details that may identify him or her.
Spurger ISD’s Mitigation Plan provides for extensive cleaning and sanitization protocols, as well as social distancing procedures, including the wearing of face masks. As such, CDC guidance provides that the risk of someone contracting COVID-19 from the staff member is low and this notice is being provided in an abundance of caution. The local health department has begun a case investigation and will contact any individuals determined to be in close contact with the infected individual. All students and staff that came into close contact will be directly notified no later than 04/20/2021. Those that were in close contact will remain off campus for up to 10 days to ensure they do not have the virus, so that there will not be any further spread. We will keep you apprised of further updates.
Any of the following symptoms indicate a possible COVID-19 infection:
-Temperature of 100.4 degrees Fahrenheit or higher when taken by mouth;
-Sore throat;
-New uncontrolled cough that causes difficulty breathing (or, for students with a chronic allergic/asthmatic cough, a change in their cough from baseline);
-Diarrhea, vomiting, or abdominal pain; or
-New onset of severe headache, especially with a fever.
If you or any member of the HS/JH School community does begin experiencing any of these symptoms in a way that is not typical, we encourage you to contact your physician. We encourage anyone in the HS/JH School community who is lab-confirmed to have COVID19 to please notify our school by contacting (409) 429-3464.
If you have any questions or concerns, please reach out to huttop@spurgerisd.org or visit our website at https://www.spurgerisd.org/ .
Sincerely,
Morgan Wright

Our Forestry team is on fire! They placed 2nd overall at the Sam Houston State University competition held in Huntsville on Tuesday
5th and 6th graders played a game of Cornhole to practice their reading academic language words. What a great way to make learning fun! 😊
4th grade researched planets, moons, dwarf planets, and comets. They wrote a rough and final draft reciting their sources, and then made a model of their project. They were so excited during the process and even more excited to share. Way to go Pirates! 😊
Elementary students are enjoying the game their parents grew up on. Some might even outscore their parents! These students earned PAC-Man time for doing a variety of things, such as picking up trash around campus, 100% math fluency, (10) 100s on AR tests, positivity, and good manners. Way to go Pirates! 😊
Just one more chapter! 6th grade student, Summer, has earned 350 AR points so far this school year. School Tools, a program with the Southeast Texas Food Bank, surprised her with gifts for this magnificent feat! 😊
Congratulations to the winners of our Edgenuity competition! Students competed for tickets by completing Edgenuity work! Way to go students!
