CN Families,
Due to a water main break in Albion, all students in grades 3 through 12 will be released at noon today, Tuesday, May 23. Students will be dismissed and bussed home per their normal afternoon schedules.
As this only effects our Albion Campus, CN Primary students will be dismissed as normal later this afternoon.

Effective immediately, Central Noble Schools will no longer be contact tracing or quarantining students due to COVID exposures. Students who test positive for COVID will be isolated at home for 5 days and will be allowed to return to school on day 6 if symptoms have improved and the student is fever free for 24 hours. All other COVID-specific control measures within the school buidling will be discontinued. If it is the desire of the parent, students will be allowed to wear a mask within the school setting. These changes will help to keep students in the classroom and allow district staff to provide the necessary supports.
We will continue to ask parents to monitor student health PRIOR to students returning to the school environment each day. As was the practice prior to COVID, students who are ill shoudl remain home until fever free for 24 hours. Parents are encouraged to contact the school office when their child is at home with an illness.
I am thankful to be at this point in the pandemic. The last 2 years has been difficult for families, students, staff and the community. The evolving situation and support of the school community has helped us reach this stage. The diligent efforts of the parents, nurses, administrators, teachers and support staff have made this transition possible.
The Indiana Department of Health and the CDC have continued to revise the guidelines to mitigate the impacts of the pandemic. The updated research and medical data has allowed the requirements to evolve over the last 2 years. Recent data has shown that many of the previous mitigation strategies are no longer necessary. At this time, the negative impacts on students greatly outweights the benefits of the strategies. We will continue to work collaboratively with the Noble County Department of Health and the Indiana Department of Health to monitor this ever-changing situation. If you have questions about the changes outlines above, please contact the building or district administration.
Thank you for your continued support of Central Noble Community Schools.
Troy Gaff
Superintendent

Thank you for a great start to the school year. It is essential that the school corporation and the community continue to work together to address the ever-changing needs of our students. Throughout the COVID pandemic, Central Noble has worked hard to continue to address the academic, physical and social needs of the students. Throughout the process we have continually looked to improve the quality and effectiveness of everything we do. The support of parents and the community has been critical in this process. Your continued support will help us progress toward the end of this pandemic.
Through the diligent efforts of the nursing staff, administrators, teachers, and support staff, we have been able to provide inperson instruction to our students. While quarantines are difficult for parents and families, they have helped to reduce the spread of COVID within the school environment. To maintain a mask optional environment, contact tracing and quarantines are mandated at this time. Please be reminded that this is not something that the school staff wants to do. Please treat the staff with respect and allow them to work with you to get the students back into the school setting as quickly as possible.
Central Noble continues to evaluate the guidance and recommendation of the state and local health department to determine if changes in current protocol need to be implemented. In a recent memo from the Indiana State Department of Health, Dr. Box authorized the use of clinically administered rapid antigen tests (BINAXNow) to determine quarantine and return to school. This change now allows families 3 options for early return. Early return is not an option for students with a COVID positive patient in their household.
**Day 8 Return (Rapid Test) – This option is available for students who are asymptomatic and do not live in the same household as a COVID positive patient. The BINAXNow antigen test must be administered on day 7 or after in a clinical setting such as a testing site, pharmacy, doctor's office, hospital, or clinic. Home tests may not be used.
**Day 8 Return (PCR) – This option is available for all quarantined students that do not have a COVID Positive patient in the same household. The PCR test must be administered on day 5 or after. All symptomatic students will be required to receive a negative PCR test to return early.
