COVID tests were sent home today, Friday, September 23rd. Every student was given two test boxes to take home. Each box has two tests in it. Please make sure to check your child's backpack for the tests.
The FDA has extended the expiration date of COVID tests for six months. So, even if the date on the test you received has passed, please know that test is good and effective. For more information go to:
If your child is feeling sick, or is showing any of the symptoms of COVID, please test them immediately.
If your child has been exposed to COVID wait 24 hours and test them.
If you receive a negative result, please wait 48 hours and then test again.
