Health Information
Health & Safety
Cedarwood works diligently in partnership with our local healthcare agencies to monitor and communicate urgent health-related information. We follow all local healthcare guidance as required and support community members in making the best choices for their own families.
- We ask that students stay home if they display any symptoms of illness. One of our most effective means of preventing transmission of any communicable disease within the school has been our policy of asking students and employees not to attend school when sick. We know this can be challenging for families, and we thank you for your continued support.
- At Cedarwood, we will support all students, staff, and faculty who choose to wear a face mask.
- Students are instructed and supervised in proper handwashing and/or use of hand sanitizer on arrival at school, before meals, and after using the bathroom. They are also supported in keeping their work areas clean.
- We also report multiple cases of communicable diseases in the school to the Multnomah County Health Department per state guidelines.
Cedarwood Immunization Rates
As required by the Oregon Health Authority, Cedarwood shares its immunization rates twice a year. In the fall, we share our overall immunization rates from the prior school year. In the spring, we will share the current year's immunization rates after the required exclusion date. The rates are electronically posted here and physically posted in the front office.
For more information on the OHA immunization requirements for schools, please visit their website. If you have any questions about Cedarwood's approach to meeting these requirements, please see Meghan in the Front Office.
