Dear SSCPS Families,
We were excited to launch our first round of pool testing in our K through 8 building this week. The first round of pool testing went smoothly, the students and staff were extremely cooperative and did a great job. Next week we will be adding the High School to our weekly pool testing. If you have not signed up but are interested in having your student participate please follow the below link to register them. You can register at any time, you should register by Thursday if you want to be included in the following weeks pool testing. https://app.beacontesting.com/register/with-code?code=WPWCQJ As we await for the results of our first pool testing we wanted to review the pool testing procedure. You will only be called if your student is in a positive pool batch. If your student is in a pool that comes back positive, we will then test the participants in the positive pool with the BinaxNOW Rapid Antigen test at school. If all the rapid tests come back negative, then an individual PCR test will be done at school on all students in the positive pool batch. Students will need to quarantine until the results of the individual PCR test come back. If the students are in school when the results come in, they will be removed from class and brought to a designated area for the additional testing. If the student’s rapid test comes back positive they will need to be picked up and will need to isolate. If positive pool results are received after hours the on call nurse will contact you and the students will need to report to school the next morning for the rapid testing. Parents will need to remain at the school until the results of the rapid test come back. If you have any additional questions or need any additional information please do not hesitate to reach out to the nursing staff.
