Symptoms of Coronavirus - fever, cough and shortness of breath

Prevent the Spread

The safety of our students and staff is our top priority. To help prevent the spread of Coronavirus, or COVID-19, in Wisconsin and the United States that has occurred in other countries such as Italy and China, the School District of New London is closing school as of March17, 2020.

Learn more about the symptoms and treatment of Coronavirus at the Center for Disease Control (CDC) website: cdc.gov/coronavirus. Those at highest risk for Coronavirus complications are older adults and individuals with compromised immune systems or heart, lung and kidney disease. We continue to closely monitor the situation with our School Nurses and Waupaca, Outagamie, and Winnebago County Health Departments, as well as review updates from the Wisconsin Department of Health Services, Department of Public Instruction and the CDC.

What You Can Do and Our Cleaning Measures

The School District of New London has a routine cleaning regimen in place to help reduce the spread of germs and communicable disease. In addition to our regular cleaning and disinfection, we are increasing the cleaning of high-touch areas and hard and soft surface items throughout the day. We will follow all guidelines of the CDC and our local and state health departments.

We all play a role in helping reduce the spread of communicable disease. We are asking our students, staff and families to practice regular preventive actions (see flyer in English, Spanish, Hmong and Mandarin Chinese) including:

Wash your hands regularly, for 20 seconds, using soap and hot water. Make sure to wash your fingertips. This is especially important after using the restroom, coughing or sneezing into your hands, and before preparing or consuming food.
Avoid coughing or sneezing into your hands or in the air. Always try to cough or sneeze into a tissue, and then throw the tissue away. If you don’t have a tissue, cough/sneeze into your arm.
As much as you can, avoid touching your eyes, mouth and nose.
Stay home if you are sick.
