NEW RESPONSE TESTING PROTOCOL
Following the guidance of our medical advisors and the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health – and subject to changes to County Health Officer Orders – beginning Monday, June 13, 2022 and continuing for the new school year, Los Angeles Unified will implement a “response testing” protocol:
Instead of requiring every student and employee to test weekly with a PCR test, only those who are experiencing COVID-19 symptoms, or who have been in close contact with a person who has tested positive, will be required to test. (Students and employees at Early Education and Care programs will continue to test weekly with PCR testing through the end of their school year, which is June 30, 2022.) All testing will be conducted with take-home rapid antigen tests, which are available for students and employees at your school or worksite. All school campuses will also continue to use the Daily Pass portal for daily health screening questions, monitoring rapid antigen test results and to notify individuals if they are a close contact of someone who has tested positive.
Important Updates
**Parents, Guardians, and Maclay School Community:

PRINCIPAL’S Core values MESSAGE
Welcome to Maclay Middle School, home of the proud lions!
It is an honor and a privilege to serve the Pacoima community. My staff and I believe every single student who walks through our doors has the opportunity to leave Maclay with all the skills necessary to succeed in high school and beyond. We believe a cornerstone of this work is that all adults at our school must be unfailingly committed to the fundamental goal of acting in the best interests of the students they serve at all times. Our five core values underscore our responsibility and our purpose:
1. Purposefulness: We will act with a goal, a plan, and with intention.
2. High Expectations for All: Adults as well as students will be held accountable.
3. A Socially Responsible Community: We will be responsible for ourselves and for our community.
4. High-school Prepared, College-Bound, and 21st Century Workforce Ready: We will commit to readying our students for all further secondary and post-secondary challenges and opportunities.
5. Parents and Community Are Our Partners: We will be responsive to the families and community we are privileged to serve.
We believe the highest goal of a Social Justice Academy will be manifested by striving to create equity.
