COVID Info

Updated July 28, 2023

All staff and students will be asked to report their COVID-19 cases here. (ParentSquare is discontinuing their Health Screener for the 23-24 school year.)

Positive individuals and site supervisors will receive instructions regarding isolation periods, symptom monitoring, and return-to-work details.

All staff and students are expected to comply with CDPH regulations regarding isolation and quarantine. In short, this means isolating for 5 days following a positive test and then returning to work/school after 5 days, if symptoms have improved and the individual is fever-free for at least 24 hours. A negative test is NOT required to return to work/school after 5 days.

Positive individuals should still mask for the 10 days following their positive test, unless they have two negative tests in a row, taken at least one day apart.

There is no COVID-19 leave bank available for employees from the State of California; employees must use personal or sick leave balances. Student absences due to COVID are excused like any other illness.

All labor partners will receive a notification about positive employee cases stating the site name and date of exposure, excluding any identifying information about the impacted employees.
