March 2022

Continuing with the recommendations from the CDC, WI DHS, and Public Health for Madison & Dane County, EAGLE School has begun relaxing protocols as the COVID-19 case count has decreased in Dane County.

  • We are proud to have a vaccine-compliant school community.
  • Of our students, 99% have had the first dose of the COVID-19 series; 98% have had the 2nd dose of the COVID-19 series; and, over 90% of eligible students have had their booster vaccines.
  • All adults working with students in the building are required to be vaccinated against COVID-19.
  • Students, teachers, and staff who have symptoms of infectious illness, such as COVID-19, flu, or even cold symptoms, stay home and get tested. Such individuals should stay home until symptoms abate, even with a negative COVID test.
  • Free and readily available COVID tests are given to symptomatic individuals through the school and in partnership with local testing providers.
  • Effective January 2022, masks are optional outside.
  • Effective March 21, 2022, masks are optional inside, except in specific situations.
  • When students eat snacks or lunch with masks off indoors in large well-ventilated spaces, 3 feet between individuals is encouraged.
  • Hand hygiene is taught and practiced, with frequent handwashing and hand sanitizing throughout the day.
  • Commonly-touched surfaces are cleaned throughout the day.
  • Our ventilation systems have adequate outside air in each cycle and are filtered with MIRV-13 filters in each cycle.
  • Windows have been cracked open allowing fresh air to be indoors, no matter the temperature and weather outside.
