Feel free to keep your kid home for 10 days then.

All the more reason this policy makes a lot of sense. Children shouldn't be missing so much school for an illness that is extremely mild for them. We now know with certainty there are widespread negative impacts from the misguided decisions surrounding school for kids over the course of the pandemic. It's nice to see a policy that actually takes anything remotely involving their needs and education into consideration.
