FEB. 14, 2022 — The New York State Department of Health has provided schools with free COVID-19 testing kits for distribution by local districts.
These tests are provided as a proactive measure to enhance the current safety protocols already occurring in the district. There is no requirement that families test their children with these kits. Tests will be distributed to students at school on Wednesday, Feb. 16. Each student will receive one kit (2 tests per kit). These tests can be administered at the discretion of the parent or guardian of each family. Any POSITIVE test results must be submitted to the Wayne County Department of Health at https://hipaa.jotform.com/213433520882048 and the school nurse. As always, regardless of test results, symptomatic students should not attend school until fully healthy.
