Total # of quarantined individuals in FCISD (includes students and staff): 39 (4.6% of our district population)
*For some of the individuals having to quarantine due to close contact with a positive case, the close contact did not occur on a campus.
Our custodians and instructional staff have done an amazing job of disinfecting our facilities daily. We strongly encourage our school community to keep wearing facial coverings, social distancing, and using hand sanitizer.
We would like to provide public notice of positive COVID-19 case #11 in our district. An elementary student received medical confirmation of a positive test on Tuesday, October 20th. The student and family are now in quarantine. The campus conducted contact tracing immediately. All health and safety measures (including social distancing and/or facial coverings) were in place and followed, so there is no reason to believe any students or staff were considered to be in “close contact” with the positive case. Close contact is defined as being exposed to infectious secretions (i.e. being coughed on) or being within 6 feet for a cumulative duration of 15 minutes. As we’ve done all year, all areas of each campus are disinfected each day. In addition, classrooms are disinfected each time students transition from class to class. We will continue to ask students age 10 and older to wear facial coverings.
Tickets for Friday night's game vs. Post (here) are being sold at the FCISD Central Office. Families of players, band members, and cheerleaders can purchase today. Sale to the general public will open up tomorrow at 8 a.m. Tickets are $4 each.
We would like to provide public notice of positive COVID-19 cases #9 and #10 in our district. Two elementary staff members received medical confirmation of positive tests today, October 19th. The staff members are now in quarantine. The campus was notified and contact tracing was immediately initiated. One staff member has limited contact with students. The other staff member is a teacher so all parents of students in that classroom will be notified. All health and safety measures (including social distancing and/or facial coverings) were in place and followed, so there is no reason to believe any students or staff were considered to be in “close contact” with the positive cases. Close contact is defined as being exposed to infectious secretions (i.e. being coughed on) or being within 6 feet for a cumulative duration of 15 minutes. As we’ve done all year, all areas of each campus are disinfected each day. In addition, classrooms are disinfected each time students transition from class to class. We will continue to ask students age 10 and older to wear facial coverings.
We would like to provide public notice of positive COVID-19 case #8 in our district. A high school student received medical confirmation of a positive test today, Saturday, October 17th. The student is now in quarantine. As of now, we believe 4 other students were in “close contact” with this positive case. The parents of those 4 students have been contacted and those students are required to quarantine for 14 days. Close contact is defined as being exposed to infectious secretions (i.e. being coughed on) or being within 6 feet for a cumulative duration of 15 minutes without a facial covering. As we continue to conduct contact tracing for this case or any other case, we will notify parents and guardians of close contact immediately. Please continue to encourage your child to wear their facial covering as this will help decrease the likelihood of contracting the virus.
We would like to provide public notice of positive COVID-19 case #7 in our district. A junior high student received medical confirmation of a positive test on Friday, October 16th. The student is now in quarantine. The secondary campus was notified and contact tracing was immediately initiated. All health and safety measures (including social distancing and/or facial coverings) were in place and followed, so there is no reason to believe any students or staff were considered to be in “close contact” with the positive case. Close contact is defined as being exposed to infectious secretions (i.e. being coughed on) or being within 6 feet for a cumulative duration of 15 minutes. As we’ve done all year, all areas of each campus are disinfected each day. In addition, classrooms are disinfected each time students transition from class to class. We will continue to ask students age 10 and older to wear facial coverings. Also, please keep in mind that the 7 cases date back to the start of the school year. There are fewer than 7 active cases since some have recovered.
We would like to provide public notice of positive COVID-19 case #6 in our district. A secondary student received medical confirmation of a positive test on Thursday, October 15th. The student and the student’s family are now in quarantine. The secondary campus was notified and contact tracing was immediately initiated. All health and safety measures (including social distancing and/or facial coverings) were in place and followed, so there is no reason to believe any students or staff were considered to be in “close contact” with the positive case. Close contact is defined as being exposed to infectious secretions (i.e. being coughed on) or being within 6 feet for a cumulative duration of 15 minutes. As we’ve done all year, all areas of each campus are disinfected each day. In addition, classrooms are disinfected each time students transition from class to class.

We would like to provide public notice of positive COVID-19 case #5 in our district. A secondary student received medical confirmation of a positive test on Tuesday, October 13th. The secondary campus was notified and contact tracing was immediately initiated. The student had not been on campus since October 7th and all health and safety measures (including social distancing and/or facial coverings) were in place and followed, so there is no reason to believe any students or staff were considered to be in “close contact” with the positive case. Close contact is defined as being exposed to infectious secretions (i.e. being coughed on) or being within 6 feet for a cumulative duration of 15 minutes. As we’ve done all year, all areas of each campus are disinfected each day. In addition, classrooms are disinfected each time students transition from class to class.
