Springmont takes the health & safety of students, families, faculty and staff very seriously. As part of our efforts to be transparent about COVID-19 on campus, we will begin sharing a weekly, school-wide COVID-19 Snapshot that includes current, active cases involving our students and employees in Springmont Weekly News.

Because Springmont does not require COVID-19 testing as a condition of continued enrollment or employment (per current recommendations by the CDC), data reported here is from self-reported communications to our administrative staff.

Sharing this data on a weekly basis will hopefully keep the seriousness of the virus and the necessity for safety precautions like masks/face coverings and physical distancing top of mind.

¹Newly confirmed cases are those reported by parents or employees who have received confirmation of a positive test by a medical provider or authorized lab during the previous week.

Additionally, if there is a confirmed case of COVID-19 in your child’s class (inclusive of both cohorts, if applicable), parents will receive an email notification promptly. Based on case-by-case advice and guidance from the Fulton County Board of Health, we may also notify additional members of the Springmont community. 

Please note that students (and their siblings) in a particular class may be asked to remain home while we seek confirmation of a positive case and counsel from the Fulton County Board of Health.  Students asked to remain home will not be counted absent that day.

In the interest of protecting students’ and employees’ privacy and confidentiality, Springmont will abide by federal FERPA and HIPPA guidelines, which include withholding personally identifiable information related to one’s health.
