IMPORTANT REMINDERS

 1. Medical Compliance by all students - Please make sure your child is medically compliant. All students must have their required vaccinations and a yearly health exam.  There are several students out of compliance and you risk medical exclusion from school. Please call Ms. Larry to confirm your child is compliant. 773-535-0829

2. Register your child for WEEKLY COVID TESTING at Sherwood - Here is the Link - https://home.color.com/covid/sign-up/start?partner=tf-she-610173-students  we can also do it for you. PLEASE CALL the school or your child's teacher and we will sign you up.

3.  If and when your child contracts COVID-19, PLEASE report it to keep our school community safe.  Please self-report COVID-19 to keep our school community safe:  https://chicagopsprod.service-now.com/health?id=cps_self_report&screener=4e0f11c7db34cd50ff10892a489619e9&step=complete OR call us to report it for you.

5. Covid Testing sites - To find a test site near you, visit chicago.gov/covidtesting or cps.edu/youthCOVIDtesting. 

6. Vaccination Information - The best way to keep you and your child safe from COVID-19 is to get vaccinated. Vaccines are safe, effective, and available to everyone ages five and up. In addition, vaccinated students who are exposed to COVID-19 can avoid quarantine and stay in the classroom as long as they remain without symptoms. To find a vaccine appointment, search http://vaccines.gov, text your ZIP code to 438829, call 1-800-232-0233, or visit cps.edu/vaccinations. 

Again, CPS also strongly encourages families to sign their child up for weekly COVID-19 testing at school by visiting color.com/readycheckgo-cps. 

If you need help locating medical care or have any CPS-specific questions, please visit cps.edu or reach out to  the Healthy CPS Hotline at 773-553-KIDS (5437), which is staffed 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday or call us at Sherwood anytime.
