PHOENIX - August 24 is the first day of school for all Legacy Traditional Schools and students who choose in-person learning will be allowed to return to campus.
Students who choose to attend in-person learning do have some requirements to follow upon returning to campus:
- Students and staff are expected to wear face coverings while on campus and are expected to screen themselves for symptoms of the coronavirus before arriving.
- Students will have to wash their hands at least every two hours, including before and after lunch, and before and after leaving classes.
Other cleaning measures will be in place and students who choose to do online learning can continue to learn 100% online.
Any student who wants to change learning options for the quarter has one week from today to do so.
Officials say contingency plans are in place in the event of a COVID-19 outbreak.

Symptoms for coronavirus COVID-19 include fever, coughing, and shortness of breath. These, of course, are similar to the common cold and flu.
Expect a common cold to start out with a sore or scratchy throat, cough, runny and/or stuffy nose. Flu symptoms are more intense and usually come on suddenly, and can include a high fever.
Symptoms of COVID-19 may appear more slowly. They usually include fever, a dry cough and noticeable shortness of breath, according to the World Health Organization. A minority of cases develop pneumonia, and the disease is especially worrisome for the elderly and those with other medical problems such as high blood pressure, obesity, diabetes or heart conditions.

Right now there's one big difference between flu and coronavirus: A vaccine exists to help prevent the flu and it's not too late to get it. It won't protect you from catching the coronavirus, but may put you in a better position to fight it.
To protect yourself, wash your hands well and often, keep them away from your face, and avoid crowds and standing close to people.
And if you do find yourself showing any of these flu or coronavirus symptoms - don't go straight to your doctor's office. That just risks making more people sick, officials urge. Call ahead, and ask if you need to be seen and where.
