What should you do if your child tests positive for COVID-19?

If your child tests positive for COVID-19, make sure to separate them from others and follow steps to prevent the spread of COVID-19 in your household. ​This means your child should not go to school, socialize, or participate in any extracurricular activities. ​Be sure to ask the school about policies for quarantine and isolation, virtual learning options, and when your child can return to school in person. ​View transcript: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/videos/if-child-tests-positive/CDC-School-Testing-Video-5-Assessing-Test-Results-Transcript.pdf
