Policies

​

Quarantine and COVID-19 Cases in School Settings

• Quarantines for close contacts in the school setting may still occur, but they will be less common due to mandatory masking and the criteria listed below.

​

• DPS quarantine guidance is detailed in the COVID-19 Screening and COVID-19 Testing Decision Tree.

​

• In the classroom setting, if one of the three criteria is met, quarantine is not required by close contacts:
• 1. Fully vaccinated without symptoms (two weeks after last recommended vaccine dose.)
• 2. Previously positive in the past 90 without symptoms day.
• 3. Both parties were wearing a mask properly over the mouth and nose at the time of exposure and without symptoms.

​

• Close contacts in the school setting are defined as children who were within 3 feet (adults 6 feet) of an infected person for a cumulative total of 15 minutes or more over a 24-hour period. Please refer to the information above to determine if quarantine of a close contact is necessary.

​

• CDC recommendation: Fully vaccinated people who have a known exposure to someone with suspected or confirmed COVID-19 should be tested 3-5 days after exposure, regardless of whether or not they have symptoms.

• A leader may discreetly and directly ask about vaccination status for safety in scheduling purposes. Leaders will not engage in conversations about why an employee has not been vaccinated.

​

Quarantine and COVID-19 Cases Outside of School

• People exposed to COVID-19 outside of the school setting -- including at home -- must follow the orders of their medical provider and the health department.

​

• CDC recommendation: Fully vaccinated people who have a known exposure to someone with suspected or confirmed COVID-19 should be tested 3-5 days after exposure, regardless of whether or not they have symptoms

Students in Quarantine

If a student has to quarantine, classroom teachers will post work on Seesaw and set up a time to meet with the students daily who are in quarantine.
