Students and staff who test positive for COVID-19 should notify the school by submitting the self-reporting form. In the case of an individual who tests positive for COVID-19, the individual may not return to work/school until all three of the following criteria are met:

1. At least 5 days have passed since symptoms first appeared; and
   • If asymptomatic, at least 5 days from the date of the positive viral test.
2. At least one day (24 hours) has passed since recovery/resolution of fever without the use of fever-reducing medications; and
3. The individual has improvement in symptoms (e.g., cough, shortness of breath).

***It is recommended for the individual to continue to wear a well-fitting mask around others at home and in public for 5 additional days (day 6 through day 10) after the end of their 5-day isolation period. If they are unable to wear a mask when around others, they should continue to isolate for 10 days. ***

• Individuals who are sick with COVID-19-like symptoms and are awaiting test results should stay home from school/work until results are provided.
