[quote=Anonymous]Ours is basically the CDC guidelines with weekly testing. Positive test means isolate at home for 5 days, return to school after 5 days if symptoms are better with masks for another 5 days. Eat outside or away from others. I don't know if it is different for unvaccinated - 98% of the upper school students are vaccinated.

There is no more contact tracing, so individuals are notifying their close contacts of a positive test. Close contacts are to wear masks for 10 days after last exposure.

Our school is small and has a COVID-cautious population, so we have had very few positive cases. Most kids who tested positive wear KN95s or even N95s when they return to school and close contacts usually also wear KN95s. Students have changed masks from cloth or surgical to KN95s, N95s during surges (like over the holidays) this past year and the year before. 
 
Our school, like most others, did lift the mask mandate in February. Initially, there was only an occasional positive case, but there has been a small uptick in recent weeks. [/quote]
