  • Updates from California Department of Public Health

    The California Department of Public Health (CDPH) has issued new COVID-19 guidance, ending the requirement to isolate for five-days after testing positive with COVID-19. The new guidance is shared below:

    If your child tests positive for COVID-19 and has symptoms (fever and/or feels ill):

    • Your child should stay home until they have not had a fever for 24 hours without using fever-reducing medication AND other COVID-19 symptoms are mild and improving. 
    • Your child should wear a mask for 10 days after the start of symptoms.

    If your child tests positive for COVID-19 and has no symptoms:

    • Your child can come to school but should wear a mask for 10 days after testing positive.

    If your child tests positive for COVID-19, please notify your child's school.
