c. Any unvaccinated person who was in close contact (less than 3’ for 15 min or longer within a 24-hour period) will have two options for
quarantine.
i. Any asymptomatic, unvaccinated person who is identified as being in close contact with a person with COVID-19 in the CSD environment
in consultation with CSD Contract tracers can select one of two (2) quarantine options:
1. Quarantine Option 1: Home quarantine for the duration of their quarantine period with virtual instruction for students.
a. Quarantine may be discontinued after day 10 without testing OR
b. After day 7 after receiving a negative test result (test must occur on day 5 or later)
2. Quarantine Option 2: Continue physically attending school during normal school hours during their quarantine period.
a. Parents must agree for their child to undergo a point of care COVID-19 test between 5-7 days after exposure.
b. Students and staff who develop symptoms and test positive for SARS-CoV-2 must inform the CSD Contact Tracing Team
immediately for guidance and isolate.
c. This option is not available for high school students as universal masking is not being implemented in that building.
All of the following apply to both of the quarantine options.
● CSD Contact Tracers will provide guidance about the start and end dates for students and staff at the time of notification. In most
situations:
● All people in quarantine may not participate in afterschool activities and athletics, including after-school care, for the duration of
their quarantine period
● All people in quarantine will have the option to undergo point of care testing for SARS-CoV-2 with the BinaxNow test at their home
school five days after exposure to an individual diagnosed with COVID-19
● All people in quarantine will be required to report the onset of symptoms and/or a positive test result for SARS-CoV-2 to the CSD
Contact Tracing Team at the time of symptom onset and/or test result, if not performed by the CSD Contact Tracing Team
ii. Fully vaccinated individuals will not need to be quarantined if they are not showing any symptoms.
*As the district has developed robust mitigation strategies and now has a cadre of options to use, if there is a need to revert back to more strict protocols, we will increase
mitigation layers by increasing physical distancing, eliminating any indoor eating, and strict adherence to cohorts.
