Principal's Message
Attached is important information from our Superintendent, Pat Atkins regarding COVID-19 testing information. Our school now has at-home testing kits available on site that are available for pick up if needed. We have ONE test kit for each student, and a parent/guardian MUST pick up the kit. Test kits will not be sent home with students.
CDPH Guidelines as of January 5, 2022
The California Department of Public Health issued new guidance pertaining to expectations and timelines for isolation and quarantine due to infection or exposure to COVID-19. This guidance may be found using the following link:
The most significant change is the duration of isolation for people who have tested positive for COVID-19:
- Isolation (for those who have tested positive for COVID-19) can end after day 5 if symptoms are not present or are resolving AND a diagnostic specimen (antigen testing is recommended and over the counter tests are allowed) collected on day 5 or later tests negative (and proof of negative results are provided to the school office).
- Quarantine (for those who are close contacts of someone who has tested positive for COVID-19) can end after day 5 if symptoms are not present AND a diagnostic specimen collected on day 5 or later tests negative.

Communication:
If your student has been exposed to COVID-19, or has tested positive for COVID-19, please contact our school office at (530) 644-2031. We will assist you in reviewing timelines and expectations for isolation/quarantine, and procedures for returning to school.
If applicable, in accordance with CDPH guidelines, proof (email documentation or photo of test) of a negative test must be submitted to the school office. Proof of negative tests may be emailed directly to: tingraham@ppesd.org AND our nurse ddepuglia@ppesd.org
We appreciate your continued communication and cooperation as we work through this. Our goal is to keep ALL of our students and staff healthy and continue to be open for full time, in-person instruction.
Appreciatively,
Reagan Phillips
