On Dec. 2, the CDC amended their guidelines to allow\u00a0for\u00a0two\u00a0additional\u00a0options<\/strong>\u00a0for the quarantine period, and on Thursday, Dec. 4, the Texas Education Agency announced their alignment with the new CDC guidelines.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Quarantine is for individuals who have been in close contact to someone who tested positive for COVID-19. The CDC previously only advised a 14-day stay-at-home (quarantine) period. For individuals experiencing no symptoms, the additional options are: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

  • 10<\/strong> <\/strong>days<\/strong> after<\/strong> the last close contact (No test required); or <\/li>
  • 7 days<\/strong> after<\/strong> the last close contact and after receiving a negative test result, administered no earlier than 5 days since the last close contact. (Proof of a negative test must be provided to the school\/work.) <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    If individuals return to school\/work from either of these two stay-at-home periods, they should regularly monitor themselves for symptoms to ensure they remain symptom-free and take appropriate precautions for the duration of the 14-days. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Campuses will notify families of their child\u2019s return date options. Employees will also be notified of their return date options. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
