According to this latest policy, students with mild respiratory symptoms will need to test every day they are coming school when they have symptoms and the morning when the symptoms have resolved. When they come to school, they will need to wear a mask until symptoms resolve. Please forward test the results to me. Write the students name and date of test on the testing device and you can email a picture to me at jnorton@westbrookctschools.org.

They can return to school and activities after Day 5 as long as they have had no fever for at least 24 hours (without fever-reducing medications) and with improvement in Covid symptoms. They will need to wear a mask for an additional 5 days after isolation ends in school and when around others.
