Per the updated South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control Exclusion List, Charleston County School District's Nursing Services Department is no longer conducting positive case investigations for COVID-19. If someone reports they have tested positive, they should isolate for five (5) days from the onset of symptoms or the test date if they are asymptomatic.

 

The individual may return to school/work on day six (6) if fever-free for 24 hours. There is no mask requirement upon return. 

 

Please know every school has the purple "IntelliSwab COVID-19 Home Kits" available for staff and families. The kits have an FDA-extended expiration date of January 2024.
