Clarification about International Travel and Returning to Campus

​The Ministry of Health’s current guidance is that anyone who travels internationally should self-isolate for fourteen days after arrival in Zambia. This applies even to those who arrive with a negative test from their country of departure. Therefore, if anyone in the household has travelled internationally, we require that the children do not come to campus until the 14-day period has passed. Of course, those children should continue to participate in our distance learning program while they are waiting. We know that everyone is eager to return to campus but it is important that everyone adhere to these Ministry of Health guidelines. Like you, we have heard stories of people being told differently upon arrival at the airport but, for now, we must comply with the official guidance we have received. If that guidance changes, we will certainly review the situation.
