The ‘Test-to-Stay’ option for unvaccinated students who are exposed to someone with COVID-19 while at school allows them to continue attending school as long as they are symptom-free and test negative for COVID-19.

It is recommended that families register students in advance for ‘Test-to-Stay’ in case they need this option in the future. This will expedite the process to remain in school if a student is exposed.

This testing program, combined with disease prevention strategies, can keep students in school, while helping the district detect new cases to prevent outbreaks, reduce the risk of further transmission, and protect others from COVID-19.
