HEALTH
Epic Charter Schools provides families with various health resources regarding child health and information on common illnesses during the school years. Below is a set of resources, links to county health departments, and our Healthy Habits video series.
COVID RESOURCES
Return to Learn Plan
Epic strives to provide an environment where students, families, and employees feel safe. The plan includes a host of considerations to address the variety of issues and contingencies that may impact operations and instruction amid the continued incidence of COVID-19 and associated variant strains.
COVID-19 Reporting
The State Department of Education has amended its previous policy for COVID-19 reporting to now include requiring schools to report COVID exposures and infections of students who learn virtually as well as school staff who work/teach virtually.
This means that any Epic student or staff member with close contact to an individual who has tested positive for COVID-19, or who has themselves tested positive, will be asked to report this to Epic so we may report it to the state.

Healthy Habits Cooking Show
Oklahoma is ranked 17th in the nation for obesity. Within the last 2 years, this has continued to rise with the ‘stay at home’ order due to the pandemic. We intend to make efforts to get families eating healthy. We plan to overcome the health issues related to obesity in the state and within Epic. When students’ physical needs are met, they are prepared for successful academics.
Take a look at how one of our Epic students is practicing a healthy habit by preparing a quick and nutritious meal. Be looking for more episodes as we partner with ENN (Epic News Network) to provide families with food recipes that are affordable and easy to make. Families will have access to all of the Healthy Habits Cooking Videos on YouTube, social media, and our Family Engagement Department newsletters.
