Student IDs for In-Person Learners
COVID-19 Symptom Screening Web App
Dear Parents/Guardians and Staff:
In an effort to promote a safe and healthy environment for students and staff entering our buildings, Barrington 220 is implementing a web app to allow families and staff to quickly and easily report current COVID-19 symptoms. A web app is a website that functions like an app, but does not require a download from an App Store. This reporting is required by our local health departments. Please use this web app each day before arriving at school.
To access our COVID-19 Symptom Screening web app:
1. Visit health.barrington220.org on any device.
2. SIGN IN using your Infinite Campus username and password.
3. Respond to the survey for each child in your family, or for yourself if you are a staff member.
4. Tap CONFIRM for each survey to report the results.
The system will confirm each check-in and respond whether or not it is safe to come to school for the day.
When arriving at school, a school employee will scan each ID. Those who have reported that they are free of COVID-19 symptoms may enter the building that day.
To learn more ways to access this system, please view this PDF.

A short instructional video is available here.
Thank you for helping us all remain safe during this pandemic.
Sincerely,
Barrington 220
