COVID-19 Guidance

What to do if your student tests positive for COVID 19?

It is important to keep your student home if they are ill.

If students and/or staff report a positive result from a home COVID test, they should see their medical provider if needed for guidance.

Students may return to school when fever free for 24 hours and improving symptoms consistent with the existing health response to acute illness.

Verified negative COVID-19 test results are NOT required for a student to return to school.

Nurses will no longer be completing COVID-19 tracking forms and will not monitor return to school/work dates.

Masks are optional for staff, students, community partners and visitors during the school day and at school sponsored functions.

Please call or email the school nurse at tfriend@bwhs.org with questions or concerns.
