CIC is excited to introduce REACH, a smartphone app that can help us better communicate with students.
At this moment, we will only be using the COVID-19 Contact Tracing Check-In feature
NFC Tags and QR Codes only provide location information
Downloading the REACH App does not give access to any other information on the phone
In the event of a positive COVID-19 case or possible exposure, Hamilton Public Health requires close contacts to be identified. By using REACH contact tracing, we can:
Respond quickly and effectively
Avoid spread and keep the CIC community safe
Identify close contacts; rather than locking down the entire school, we may be able to isolate smaller groups who may have been exposed
Maintain in-person classes, clubs, sports, trips, and events
Avoid additional quarantine or isolation periods due to exposure to COVID-19
