FPS COVID-19 Testing for Non Symptomatic Individuals
You can send your students and staff here for the close contact testing or for people who want to test on a regular basis. This is not for symptomatic individuals. Symptomatic individuals should get a PCR test from their healthcare provider or Fargo Cass Public Health.
Register using the QR code before coming to testing. This is a different registration link than the Fargo Cass testing.
Fargo Cass Public Health COVID Testing Program
- If a student or staff member is deemed an unmasked close contact, they can use this program to remain in school. In order to participate in the testing program, parents must fill out the testing consent form for their child in PowerSchool.
- The student or staff member must test at least every other day and remain asymptomatic during the duration of the testing program. Students and staff members should work with their building administration and testing staff to determine which days to test and work around scheduling conflicts.
- Fargo Cass Public Health will provide testing for students and staff. Testing is available from Monday - Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. The testing site is located at 3051 25th Street South, Fargo, Suite K, in the Family Fare Strip Mall. Those being tested must register in advance at testreg.nd.gov. It is a one-time registration process.
Weekly Building COVID Communication
The week of December 6, 2021, Centennial had 0 positive student and staff COVID-19 cases. Out of those cases, 0 had close contacts due to school or school related activities or athletics. Centennial administration has reached out to all those deemed close contacts. If you have not been contacted, you or your student are not identified as a close contact in the school setting.
Close contacts include students and staff members who were within six (6) feet of the individual for at least 15 cumulative minutes in a classroom or in other school spaces. Due to guidelines from the North Dakota Department of Health, if the close contact is fully vaccinated OR the close contact and the positive individual were both wearing masks, the close contact does not need to quarantine if asymptomatic.
Sincerely,
Bobby Olson
