Dear Millis Families,

As announced by the Millis School Committee and stated in Superintendent Gustafson’s communication, we have purchased a COVID-19 health screening application for use by faculty, staff and students to help ensure that all those entering our schools are free of COVID symptoms.

Today, Friday October 16,at approximately 6 p.m., you will be receiving an email directly from AUXS titled "Welcome to Safety App" with instructions on how to set up your account. Please check your spam/junk folder and then contact the school office if you do not receive it. The link will expire in 48 hours, so you must activate your account by October 18th


We ask that all caregivers activate their students’ accounts and begin using the application starting on Sunday  October 19th and/or Wednesday October 21st- depending on your student’s cohort attendance. 


It is imperative that parents ensure each and every student completes the health screening prior to attending school that week. Students must have completed screeners to attend school.  A vital part of the health screening is a temperature check, so please purchase a thermometer now if you do not have one. (Please note that in #5 although, Rhode Island is considered a high-risk state - short visits are permissible).


Please be aware that a YES answer to any of the six questions- will result in Failed response and require your child to stay home. Any student having failed the screener (Red screen) will not be permitted to attend school.  You will also be contacted by the Health office by email and/or phone within 24 hours to assist you with next steps for your child with COVID-19 symptoms or contact.


With Regards,


Nancy L. Gustafson
