Testing & Notification for COVID-19

What needs to happen for the school?

If your student has been exposed to someone with COVID-19. Monitor for symptoms and continue to allow your student to attend school and/or other activities. If your student is feeling unwell, please keep the student home from school until 24 hours have passed since the last bout of diarrhea, vomiting, or fever.

What if my student tests positive for COVID-19?

Please use the Washington Dept of Health Isolation Calculator to understand how long your student should stay home recovering. Notify the school if your student has a confirmed COVID Diagnosis: MVE (509) 996-2186, LBHS (509) 996-2215.

Washington State Public Schools are required to notify all potentially-exposed staff and students to a COVID. A generic letter will be sent out to the families in your student’s class alerting them to possible exposure. The COVID-positive patient’s identity will remain anonymous

If your student received a positive COVID test via a home test, please report to the Okanogan County Health Dept.
