COVID-19 Guidelines

Stay home. COVID symptoms can include cough, shortness of breath, sore throat, headache, diarrhea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and even cold symptoms. Out of consideration for your child’s classmates, please err on the side of caution. 

Stay home for a minimum of 5 days and if no symptoms, return to school on the 6th day.

Start counting your days from the onset of symptoms or from the date of the positive test, whichever was earlier.  

• The definition of “no symptoms” means you do not have a runny nose, cough, sore throat, headache or other aches or pains.

• If you’re unvaccinated, stay home for 5 days from the date of last exposure, monitor for symptoms, and if no symptoms, return to school on the 6th day. 

• If you have a booster shot, you do not need to quarantine.

• If another member of the family tests positive for COVID, the count restarts.

• Unvaccinated family members should stay home until test results are received (and if positive, refer to rules above).
• Per CDC and NJ rules, vaccinated family members need not stay home.
