CDC COVID-19 guidelines

September 12, 2024

As many of you are aware, we already have COVID-19 in our schools and communities.  It is a respiratory illness that seems to be here to stay.

CDC communicable disease guidelines now treat COVID-19 as many other respiratory illnesses in that you need to be fever-free, for 24 hours, without the use of fever-reducing medicine, and you need to be excluded from school until symptoms are resolving, overall.  

For example, you would not want to send your child to school if he/she was coughing and/or sneezing and spraying respiratory droplets through the air, and you would want to monitor congestion to make sure that there is not a lot of nasal discharge/drainage which could be spread through contact with contaminated surfaces.

The incubation period for COVID-19 (time between exposure and onset of symptoms) is 2-14 days.  There is no longer a mandated 5 days out of school/ 5 days in a mask upon returning to school.  

Please see the attached screenshot from the CDC Communicable Disease Guidelines re: COVID-19.  Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions. Thank you.
