Two Testing Sites: Asymptomatic & Sympotmatic or Special Needs/Sensory Needs Students
For Asymptomatic testing for Close Contacts.
Fargo Public Schools is pleased to offer a COVID-19 testing site to its families as part of its testing program. FPS will test students and staff members who are deemed a close contact in the school setting in order for the individuals to remain in school. To remain in school, individuals who have been deemed an unmasked or unvaccinated close contact must submit to COVID-19 testing at least every other day, test negative, and remain symptom free. This testing is offered at Fargo South High School. Testing registration with the ND Department of Health must be completed prior to tests being administered. Use the link posted below or snap a photo of the QR code above to register. An individual needs to register using the provided link or QR code upon their first time at the FPS testing site, regardless of the number of tests issued. Additionally, parent/guardian consent is required at the time of the test administration. Parents/guardians can provide consent using the FPS testing consent form in PowerSchool.
Testing Location: South High School
Room C11, 1840 South 15th Avenue, Fargo

Symptomatic Students and Children with Special Needs &/or Sensory Difficulties should continue to use the Fargo Cass Testing Site at: 3051 25th Street South, Fargo, Suite K, as the South High Location is not yet set up for this option. Remember to Pre-Register ND Dept. of Health COVID Testing Registration: https://testreg.nd.gov/?eventid=c7725ef9-2711-ec11-b6e6-001dd8308015 For Special Needs/ Sensory Needs students: The parents may then come in the FRONT door and notify testing staff that they will be pulling into the back. Please pull around to the back of the building, near the loading ramp and dumpster. Public Health Nurses will then go to them allowing the child can stay in their car. Staff cannot see out the back door, so you must notify them before pulling up to the back. ***This process is only for students with Special Needs/ Sensory Difficulties.***. All others should enter through the front door.
