COVID-19: What to know for 2022-23
All COVID guidelines from last school year/June remain in effect and unchanged for the start of the school year. CDPH guidelines for K-12 Schools
In case of positive test or exposure, students should …
· If students test positive for COVID, they should stay home.
· Families whose students were on-campus during their infectious period should notify the school. Students who do not have symptoms and test negative on Day 5 can end isolation and return to school but wear a mask while around others for five more days.
· If unable to test (or continue to test positive), students can end isolation after Day 10 if they have been fever-free for 24 hours and have not taken fever-reducing medications.
· All who test positive should mask around others for a total of 10 days.
· Students who are close contacts of someone with COVID should test within three to five days of last exposure and should wear a well-fitting mask around others for a total of 10 days but do not have to stay home unless they have symptoms or test positive.
· Masks continue to be strongly recommended but are not required in school settings.
