+ GENERAL PROCEDURES FOR STUDENT HEALTH SCREENING
Updated: 09/16/2020
- A COVID-19 Health Screening must be completed by parents/guardians before sending children to school each day.
- The preferred method for completing the daily health screening is an electronic, web-based tool. However, a paper option is also available and can be completed at home and sent to school along with the student. Instructions for the electronic and paper screening tools are provided below.
- Temperatures are expected to be taken by parents and guardians daily, as a component of the health screening. Students must be fever-free (temperature that is less than 100.4° F), without the use of fever-reducing medication, in order to go to school.
- Parents and guardians will be contacted if their child arrives at school and has not had their screening completed. A school staff member will work with the student and parent/guardian to complete the screening.
- A member of the school-based COVID-19 Support Team will be assigned to provide to support to families of any child who must stay home as a result of the daily screening.
