Dear DCPS Pre-K Families,

Thank you to all our families for implementing the second week of our required weekly testing program. As of noon today, 3,897 Pre-K students submitted their results, and 18 positive cases were reported.

As part of our weekly testing program, we are implementing a test-to-stay pilot program for Pre-K students. Test to Stay for Pre-K classrooms will go into effect should a student test positive through the required weekly testing each Sunday. This means that all students in the classroom who tested negative can attend school, and the following steps will take place to start the school week:

On Mondays, all children in a classroom impacted by a positive reported case from weekly Pre-K testing will receive a verbal and visual health screening by a trained health professional to check for any symptoms of COVID-19.

On Tuesdays, a rapid antigen test — like the one in the weekly at-home kit — will be administered by a trained health professional to all students in the classroom. If a student tests positive in that rapid test, the student will be moved to the health isolation room and parents will be contacted to pick the student up from school.

If additional testing or action for the classroom is warranted based on the Tuesday rapid test results for the students, information will be communicated to families at that time.
