GUIDANCE FOR “TEST TO STAY” STRATEGY FOR K-12 SCHOOLS

In-person instruction for K-12 students is a priority. The purpose of this document is to provide guidance on an optional strategy for managing COVID-19 exposures in the school setting. CDC guidelines emphasize the implementation of layered prevention strategies to protect students, teachers, and staff which includes isolation of persons who test positive for COVID-19 as well as contact tracing and quarantine of unvaccinated contacts. This document outlines considerations for a “test to stay” strategy to allow unvaccinated individuals who are exposed to COVID-19 at school to continue with in-person instruction with repeated negative COVID-19 test results. This program is intended for continuity of education, not for continued participation in athletic programs or extracurricular activities.
