2022 - 2023 School Year Guidance
As we begin the school year, we have received guidance from the Department of Health and the CDC. Many changes have occurred since last June. The following guidelines will be in place beginning September 7, 2022:
Masks are not required, but may be worn per individual preference.
Testing will not be required, however testing is available if requested with parent permission.
The Test To Stay Program will not be in effect. If your child tests positive, they must stay home and quarantine for 5 days. They may return to school after 5 days, as long as their symptoms are improving. They will be required to wear a mask for the next 5 days.
Siblings of positive students may come to school if they are not showing symptoms.
Additional information will be shared as updates are received throughout the school year
COVID-19 Testing is available at GCS for students, parents, and family members, upon request.
Please click here to submit your request to be tested. Our district office will then contact you to schedule your test.
