Robert Down Elementary School

Students in Mr. Ibrahim’s 4th grade class were sent home today, Wednesday, at noon when it was learned one student had tested positive for Covid-19 last week. Ibrahim and his students will be in quarantine until next Tuesday and perhaps longer if anyone develops Covid symptoms. While in quarantine, students will resume distance learning.

Earlier this afternoon, we were notified that a student attending school via in-person instruction at Robert Down was diagnosed with COVID-19. The family is taking the necessary precautions to keep the student home and is in regular communication with me. The student wore their mask while in attendance and only removed it during snack and lunch for a limited time within their designated eating area. In addition, I conducted follow-up communication with the Monterey County Health Department for reporting and guidance. All families whose children are in the same class as the student diagnosed with COVID-19 have been notified separately.
