Health & Safety Update: Contact Tracing
As you are aware, over the last few weeks Berks County’s COVID-19 positivity rate has more than doubled due to the highly transmissible Omicron variant. During this time, more people than ever before are COVID-19 positive in the Exeter community with multiple opportunities to become infected with this contagious illness both in and out of school buildings.
As we continue to count, monitor, report and contact trace COVID-19 rates in our school district, we have decided to discontinue personal phone calls to parents who have children who have been identified as a close contact of someone at school who tested positive for COVID-19 and continue with parent outreach and notification via ParentSquare. Please know that parents will receive a detailed email, a text and a recorded phone call with information about their child’s exposure, COVID-19 symptoms to look for, and quarantine options. As always, parents will also be encouraged to call the school nurse or their building principal should they have further concerns or questions.
Reducing the number of calls that our principals and nursing staff are making daily will allow them to get back to what they do best: Work with and care for your children when they’re at school.
We appreciate your continued support. Thank you.

Exeter to host COVID-19 Vaccine Booster Clinic
The Exeter Township School District will partner with Walmart to host a Pfizer COVID-19 Vaccine Booster Clinic for people 12 years old and older on Wednesday, January 19, 2022 from 3PM to 7PM at the Reiffton School, located at 4355 Dunham Drive, Reading, PA 19606. To receive a Pfizer booster, recipients should have completed their Pfizer vaccine 5+ months ago, Moderna vaccine 6+ months ago or Johnson & Johnson vaccine 2+ months ago. The Pfizer booster will be administered at this clinic regardless of which vaccine series was initially completed.
Attendees are reminded to bring their vaccine card, insurance card and ID to the appointment. The booster will be administered free of charge.
To be considered fully vaccinated to avoid quarantine for a household exposure, currently, the Exeter Township School District requires students or staff to have received a booster shot if they competed 2 doses of the Pfizer or Moderna vaccine more than 6+ months ago, or received a Johnson & Johnson vaccine more than 2+ months ago.
