Self-Assessment

1. Self-assessment based upon symptoms:

In the last 48 hours, have you experienced any of the following symptoms? (not related to allergies or known medical issues):

  • Temperature of 100.4 degrees Fahrenheit or higher when taken by mouth or possible fever symptoms like alternating chills and sweating
  • Sore throat
  • Congestion or runny nose
  • NEW uncontrolled cough that causes difficulty breathing (for those with chronic allergic/asthmatic cough, a change in their cough from baseline)
  • Nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, or abdominal pain
  • NEW onset of severe headache, especially with a fever
  • Shortness of breath
  • Muscle aches
  • NEW loss of taste or smell
 
2. Self-assessment based on close contact (applicable only to the unvaccinated or those who contracted COVID-19 more than 90 days since the date of close contact):

In the last 14 days, have you had close contact (within 6 feet for a total of 15 minutes) with someone who is confirmed to have COVID-19, during their infectious period (this period begins 2 days prior to onset of symptoms for symptomatic cases or 2 days prior to the date of specimen collection for asymptomatic).

 

If your student has any of the symptoms or close contact as described in #1 and #2 above, you should report this to the school office and the students should remain home. Furthermore, you are encouraged to get your student tested for COVID-19 and consult with their healthcare professional.
