If they are not tested for COVID, at the end of 10 days, they can return if they have been fever free for 72 hours. Students can return anytime during the 10 day isolation period with a doctor's note or if they are tested and it is negative. During this isolation period, if students feel well enough to participate, they will be asked to engage in remote learning.
