Sign Up for Free Voluntary Testing

The district's current COVID-19 testing vendor is giving all students the ability to test weekly for COVID-19.  Please see the link below to the required consent form if you are interested in signing your child up for voluntary COVID-19 testing.

COVID TESTING CONSENT FORM

Student testing will maximize the longevity of in-person learning by quickly detecting, tracing, and isolating COVID-19 positive individuals — whether or not they begin to show symptoms. And it will provide families and staff with peace of mind. The current safety measures in place, combined with testing for staff and students, will lower the risk of transmission and allow more consistent access to in-person instruction for our students.     

What is the test?  

The testing is an anterior-nasal swab test (a short swab no longer than a typical Q-Tip is inserted into the front portion of the nostril) and takes only a few seconds to collect. This is a non-invasive collection method.

Sharing of information about your child will only be done so in accordance with applicable law and city policies protecting student privacy and the security of your child’s data. Therefore, we will not release your child’s name and test results to entities outside of the local school district and health department.
