Liberty Community Unit School District #2  

                                 Opening Plan for 2022 - 2023

In accordance with the most recent guidelines of the CDC, IDPH, and ISBE, layered mitigations will still be in place, such as physical distancing, the option of masking, and continued sanitizing and cleaning.  At any time local conditions change, mitigations may be removed or added as deemed necessary by the Liberty School Board working collaboratively with the Adams County Health Department.     

• Educational opportunities for the 2022 - 2023 school year will be in-person unless an individual is voluntarily quarantined.  Then, remote/off-campus learning is available to those during the time of quarantine.

• Masks are optional, and no one will be discriminated against while wearing or not wearing a mask.

• Social distancing will be maintained when possible. 

• When individuals are identified as having close contact with someone who has tested positive for COVID, they will be encouraged to quarantine for the safety of others.

• Individuals who are experiencing COVID symptoms, and their household members, should stay home until proof of a negative COVID test is produced. The school can perform the test upon request.  (swabbing the nose)

• Testing a student will be done if parent permission has been given in a confidential, private setting.

• If someone has tested positive for COVID, they need to quarantine for five days and be fever-free and symptom-free for 24 hours before returning to school on the sixth day. Note:  Day1 begins one day after a confirmed positive COVID test or symptoms begin.

• Continuous cleaning, sanitizing, washing of hands, and respiratory etiquette will be practiced to keep everyone healthy from all illnesses.

• Please take extra precautions and stay home when you are ill.  Fever-free for 24 hours, no vomiting within 24 hours, and no COVID symptoms.
