WCUUSD COVID-19 Action Plan

Based on the most recent State guidance, the WCUUSD COVID-19 Action Plan addresses the many “What if” questions so many of us are struggling with.

What if my student wakes up with Covid-like symptoms? What if a teacher or staff member tests positive for Covid?  What if my child begins to feel sick at school? What if we have to travel out of state?

The goal of this booklet is to answer those questions and direct you to the latest information from the Vermont Department of Health and the Agency of Education. 

As we all know by now, things can change overnight. For the present, however, this booklet reflects the latest guidance from the state. Be assured, should that guidance be changed or updated, this booklet will be updated as well.  If you have questions that are not answered here, please continue to contact our Covid Coordinator Elizabeth Wirth at ewirth@u32.org

Vermont Department of Health Guidance

• What happens if my child has symptoms at home or gets sick in school?
• When does my child need a COVID-19 test?
• When can my child go back to school?

The Vermont Department of Health has issued this new guidance to help answer your questions. 

Travel Information

Do you or other members of your household have upcoming plans to travel out of state? Will your household be hosting individuals from out of state? Please be sure you review our Updated Travel Information flyer. This flyer will help you answer some important questions like:

Free School Meals!

Meals (both breakfast and lunch) are currently free to all students until December 31st or when funding has run out, whichever is sooner.  Free and reduced meal applications are not required to receive free meals but are encouraged to be submitted as that information can support resources made available to the school and wider community. Students will continue to sign-up for lunch for that day and breakfast for the next day during Morning Meeting. 

Thank you to the Rumney community for your patience and understanding while we navigate through these uncertain times. 

Graduation took place on June 9, with adjustments so the event would be safe as well as celebratory. Besides collecting their diplomas, 6th-graders picked up their nickname T-shirts and ran a safe modified last-day-at-Rumney gauntlet before heading out in yet another motorcade. (to see the graduation ceremony video, click the image below. For clips of the motorcade and farewells at the last ASM, click the links below the image).

Health and Wellness

A student may receive a modified school meal or snack if they have a medical concern that requires accommodation (not just a family or child food preference).  A VT. Dept of Education Food Modification Form must be filled out by the medical provider. The kitchen staff has the form and it can be found on the RMS Webpage.  MEDICAL MODIFIED SCHOOL MEAL APPLICATION
