Dear Parents and Guardians,

The Davis School District has been informed by the Davis County Health Department that Farmington High
School has 15 confirmed cases of individuals with the COVID-19 virus over the last 14 days. According to the
health department, any school with 15 or more confirmed cases will result in a closure of the school for 14 days.

Because of this, Farmington High School will be closed beginning Wednesday, Oct. 21. It will re-open Wednesday,
Nov. 4. This step is being taken to control the spread of the virus.

In the meantime, teachers will use Wednesday, Oct. 21, to prepare to switch to totally remote learning. Students
will begin that remote learning on Thursday, Oct. 22. Students will remain on the same schedule and times that
they already follow during the regular school day while being served remotely over these two weeks.

Again, students will return to school on Wednesday, Nov. 4. Any student with technology needs or Wi-Fi issues
may call the school office during regular office hours at 801-402-9050 for assistance.

Breakfast and lunch will also continue to be provided during this closure time. Students/parents will be able to
come to the school and pickup their daily grab-and-go meal between 11:00 am – 11:30 am.

Also, consistent with provisions in the Utah Department of Health COVID-19 School Manual, all Utah High
School Activity Association-sanctioned activities will continue during the 14-day window. However, if there are
three or more confirmed COVID-19 cases among team members, that team will be quarantined for 14 days.

Additional information may be found on the school website and in upcoming emails.

We thank you for your patience and support during this time as we work together to reduce the current spike in
cases and keep students and staff as safe as possible. We also strongly encourage proper washing of hands, the use
of face coverings, the practice of physical distancing, keeping students home when they are sick and the continual
effort to clean and disinfect as ways to slow the spread of the virus.

We are sorry for any inconveniences that this has/will cause to you and your families.

548 West Glovers Lane • Farmington, UT 84025
