Illness and Covid Information

Sick child?

Keep your child home from school, even for mild symptoms. 

Give 2 at-home antigen (rapid) tests spaced 24 hours apart.

Your child can return with 2 negative tests AND when symptoms are improved. 

Thank you for helping to prevent the spread of illness (even non-covid illnesses!)


Test Positive for Covid? 

Stay home and isolate for a minimum of 5 days

Your child can return after 5 days if: 

  • They have two negative antigen tests performed at least 24 hours apart beginning no earlier than day 4
  • They never had symptoms or their symptoms have improved and they feel better
  • AND they have had no fever for at least 24 hours without the use of medicine that reduces fevers
  • AND they wear a mask around others through day 10.
