The Board of Education voted during its Monday, Oct. 18 meeting to change the quarantine protocols for students/staff identified as close contacts with COVID-19 positive individuals.
Starting, Wednesday, Oct. 20, any 4K - 12 students/staff who are
- Identified as a close contact with a COVID-19 positive individual, AND
- Symptom free
can remain in the school building for academic and extracurricular activities on the condition that the close contact student/staff wears a mask in the school building for 7 to 10 calendar days.
Close contact students/staff who have a valid mask exemption can choose to wear a mask in the school building for the 7 to 10 day quarantine period or remain home for the 7 to 10 day quarantine period.
* Unvaccinated students/staff must quarantine at home if they are identified as a close contact with a household member who has tested positive for COVID-19. *
If you have questions regarding the new quarantine protocols, please contact District Nurses Krista Nelson, or Kristin Hafner.
