If a COVID outbreak occurs within a class, sports team or set of classrooms, district leaders could add additional mitigation measures. Those could include a mask requirement, limited visitor access or a temporary classroom closure.
“Families will be notified and may choose to have their students follow modified operations or may decide to keep them home during this time period,” the policy reads.School-based testing might also be made available during an outbreak, depending on need and funding, the school district said.
If there were a large, widespread outbreak, administrators might temporarily close a school. According to the district’s policy, officials would review a range of factors — including case numbers, absentee rates among students and staff and local hospital capacity — before deciding whether or not to close a school.
