person-to person contact. Over 100,000 people in the United States have died from COVID-19.
As a result, federal, state, and local governments and federal and state health agencies
recommend social distancing and have, in many locations, prohibited the congregation of
groups of people.

COVID-19; however, Salesian College Preparatory cannot guarantee that a student or their
family or friends or to anyone with whom such persons may have contact, will not become
infected with COVID-19. Further, attending any activities associated with Salesian College
Preparatory such as but not limited to attendance at school, attendance for athletics, through a club
or other co-curricular activity, a school function of any sort on or off its campus (“School Function”)
