The Portage la Prairie School Division would like to inform families and staff that we have received an important communication from Manitoba Health, Seniors and Long-Term Care regarding the current measles situation in Manitoba and across Canada.
The attached two-page letter is addressed to all School Divisions, Independent Schools, and Child Care Facilities in Manitoba. It outlines key information about measles symptoms, prevention measures, and the importance of vaccination. The letter also aims to raise awareness within child care and school communities to help prevent the spread of this highly contagious illness.
We encourage all parents, guardians, and staff to review the letter carefully and remain vigilant. Your cooperation is essential in helping us keep our schools and communities safe, healthy, and informed.
