  • Responding to COVID-19 Symptoms and/or Exposure

    ALL POSITIVE TESTS MUST BE REPORTED TO THE SCHOOL

    SYMPTOMATIC: remain home. Undergo testing and/or reach out to a healthcare provider.
     
    POSITIVE TEST: stay home for 5 days. Day 0 is the day symptoms began. May return to school on Day 6 if asymptomatic or symptoms are resolving and have been fever free for 24 hrs without fever reducing medication. Day 6 through Day 10 wear a mask while indoors. 

    EXPOSURE: (regardless of vaccination status) Quarantine is no longer recommended for K-12 schools. As long as they remain asymptomatic, students can continue to attend school. Individuals may mask indoors around others for 10 days after exposure if they choose and consider testing 5 days after an exposure (or sooner, if symptomatic).
