Wildcat Week in Sports: 1/31/22 - 2/5/22
NEW COVID-19 Group Tracing
We’ll notify an entire class, team, etc. if they were exposed to a COVID-positive individual.
Potentially exposed students, regardless of COVID-19 vaccination status or prior infection, should get tested for COVID-19 with at least one diagnostic test obtained within 3-5 days after last exposure and no more than once weekly if you have received multiple notices of exposure(s).
Please use this link to the ECHS short form to submit positive testing results. If you student is negative, you do NOT need to upload their results.
Potentially exposed students who participate in testing may continue to take part in all aspects of K-12 schooling, including sports and extracurricular activities, unless they develop symptoms or test positive for COVID-19.
When students are exposed to a COVID-19 positive person in a school setting, OUSD will notify parents/guardians in writing of the exposure. All students may remain in school unless they are experiencing symptoms or have tested positive.
Remember to keep students who are experiencing symptoms or who test positive at home. If your student tested positive for COVID-19, the recommendation is to test on day 5 before returning to campus.
The San Diego County public health documents and decision trees, to which OUSD adheres, have been updated with this new information; OUSD will implement the changes effective immediately.
Remember, ECHS Truax theater lobby is one of the district COVID-19 testing sites. For additional testing locations or vaccination information, please visit our COVID-19 Plan site.
