SPRING BREAK COVID TESTING

Before the break, all students will bring home a rapid antigen COVID test kit with 2 tests. CCUSD is not requiring the tests in order to return to school, but it is highly encouraged that all students utilize the test prior to returning to school on Monday, April 11th. If asymptomatic, please take both tests twice over three days with at least 24 hours (and no more than 48 hours) between tests.

CCUSD will also provide drive-thru testing during the break for students, families, and any community members in the Middle School/ Elenda St parking lot, on the following days:

Saturday, March 26, 9 am - 2 pm

Tuesday, March 29, 9 am - 2 pm

Saturday, April 2, 9 am - 2 pm

Tuesday, April 5, 9 am - 2 pm

Registration in advance is required:

· labgen (labsvc.net) See instructions attached.

· Only register once - then “order a test” for each day you want to come.

· There are no appointment times. Just show up during the 9am-2pm window.

· Results are provided within 24-48 hours.

Both testing options are optional for students and staff. A negative test result will NOT be required to return to school after the break, although we strongly encourage everyone to get tested at one of these sites, or an alternative clinic of your choosing, before returning to school on Monday, April 11.

All students will be required to get tested in person on Tuesday, April 12, whether or not they got tested during spring break, when our in-school testing resumes.

Please remember that students are required to continue masking while indoors on campus from Monday, April 11 – Friday, April 15, as we monitor any Covid-19 cases that occur during spring break. Barring a major surge, masking will be optional, though still strongly encouraged, for students and staff beginning Monday, April 18.
