When to Keep a Child Home from School, 22-23, From CJDS Interim Head of School, Rabbi Morris Allen
November 2020
"As we were planning for reopening, I never had to worry if we would be able to afford the best possible materials for the precautions we wanted to take, because I knew JewishColumbus would support us. Thank you to JewishColumbus for their continuous support in keeping our students safe." - Rachel Arcus-Goldberg, CJDS Head of School
Funding for these items were made possible by the JewishColumbus Community Response Fund. These items have continued to keep our students safe during the COVID-19 pandemic, including items like masks, hand sanitizer, wipes, an app to track students' symptoms each morning, tents for outdoor classes, and chrome books for virtual learning.
Through this funding, we've been able to hire additional maintenance to help keep our facility clean throughout the day, order clear masks for hearing impaired students, and provide walkie-talkies for every Teacher to help stagger students during dismissal and communicate with all classes as we are constantly in and out of the building.

Those entering Ohio after travel to states reporting positive testing rates of 15% or higher for COVID-19 are advised to self-quarantine for 14 days.
Positivity rate is an indicator of how much COVID-19 there is in a community, and ODH is recommending against travel to those states with high positivity. If someone must travel, ODH is recommending 14 days of self-quarantine after leaving those locations.
This advisory is intended for both leisure and business travel, and should be heeded by both Ohioans and out-of-state travelers. The list of states will be updated every week on Wednesday.
