Any child who has Covid-like symptoms for more than 24 hours must produce a negative PCR test AND be symptom free in order to return to school. Even if your child doesn't have Covid, sending them to school with cold or flu symptoms may cause other children to become sick and require unnecessary Covid testing.
Please refer to our school's website Evergreen Middle School (lwsd.org) and the DOH Flow Chart COVID-19 Symptom Decision Trees for Schools (lwsd.org) for further guidance.
