Isolation is no longer required for those testing positive with COVID-19. Please see this on the WPS Nursing website for further information and guidance. Students and staff should stay home if they are ill, regardless of testing results. To return to school after a respiratory illness, students should be fever-free for at least 24 hours without the use of fever-reducing medication, and comfortable playing and learning normally. If your child never develops a fever, and symptoms are mild and do not interfere with normal activity, he or she can continue to attend school. Let’s all do our part in supporting a healthy start to the year!
