Below is a letter sent to all Fieldcrest families from Superintendent Dr. Kari Rockwell.
Hello Fieldcrest!
I hope this email finds you well and preparing your child for the start of school. Our staff has been working diligently to prepare a safe and engaging school year for all students. Please know that while our start may be different, the priorities remain the same: health, safety, and education. We look forward to working together as educational partners!
This email contains documents explaining procedures and regulations which will support our priorities. While this is a new and different approach, we believe our plans are appropriate for our community.
Fieldcrest CUSD#6 is required to provide a COVID-19 Daily Heath Screening for all students and employees each day. A separate email will be sent on Tuesday as a reminder, however directions are attached. Student COVID-19 Daily Health Screening.pdf
Due to changes in regulations and protocols, the following procedures will be in place until further notice:
Students cannot ride any other bus other than their assigned bus (Unless part of a custodial parent agreement).
Attached you'll find Nurse Nancy's tips (When Your Child Gets Sick) for addressing sick students in the 20-21 school year.

Since the release of our in-person, Return to Learn Plan the COVID-19 health concern has continued to evolve. The most recent guiding document attached is the IDPH-School-FAQs. This document underscores the mask and social distancing requirements for all. This document also explains the protocols for students/staff who exhibit 1 or more symptoms in the document CDC Symptoms. Fieldcrest will abide by all required protocols listed in the IDPH-School-FAQs document so that in-person learning can take place. If IDPH shares additional or modified requirements, Fieldcrest will follow these changes and share with parents.
