Respiratory Virus Response Protocols 

BCCS has updated our Respiratory Virus Response Protocols for the 2024-2025 school year. If you have questions, please contact your school's nurse.

 


 

For Students: 

  • After a positive Respiratory virus test, positive COVID Test, or positive Influenza Test, students may return to school when, for at least 24 hours, symptoms are improving overall, and if a fever was present, it has been gone without use of a fever-reducing medication. 

  • Upon returning to school, students should wear a mask and be mindful of keeping distance from others as much as possible for 5 days.

  • Please inform the attendance line about the positive test for COVID tracking purposes and contact the school nurse with questions. 

 

For Staff: 

  • After a positive Respiratory virus test, positive COVID Test, or positive Influenza Test, you may return to work when, for at least 24 hours, symptoms are improving overall, and if a fever was present, it has been gone without use of a fever-reducing medication. 

  • Upon returning to work, staff should wear a mask and be mindful of keeping distance from others as much as possible for 5 days. 

  • Please inform the Health Service Manager, Debbie Erickson, at derickson1@bccs286.org for COVID tracking purposes.
