​Coronavirus Information For Parents and Students:

Ensuring the health and safety of our students and staff is a top priority for the Osceola County School Board. The district continues to be in regular communication with Osceola County Emergency Management and the Florida Department of Health about the coronavirus, and is following their guidance. At this time, there have been no cases of coronavirus identified in Florida.

Parents and students are asked to take some common-sense precautions that apply to many infectious diseases, like the flu. The most important are having students stay home from school if they are sick, covering your nose and mouth with a tissue when you cough or sneeze, and washing your hands frequently with soap and water. For additional information, visit the Florida Department of Health’s website at http://www.floridahealth.gov or the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention at https://www.cdc.gov/.

 

Be assured that the district will follow recommendations from county and state health officials in the event school closures are necessary. We will remain diligent in following the latest information available on this important health issue, and will communicate with parents as we receive new information.
