Staff, we will continue with the COVID-19 screening on campus next week on Monday, March 1st at 7:00 am by the new band hall doors that face west to the teacher parking lot. If we have high demand we will add another day as needed. This is only for staff who are currently working on campus and the District Special Education Department. This is not required, it is voluntary only. This is the BinaxNOW COVID-19 Ag card test. It is a nasal swab screening that you perform on yourself. If you have any symptoms of COVID-19 you are not permitted to be on campus and will need to see your medical provider for instruction. This screening is an antigen test, not a PCR test. You will need to fill out a google form and register at the Texas Rapid test website. At the Texas Rapid website, you will be given a QR code that you must screenshot or print out and bring with you on the day of screening. If you don't pre-register or forget to bring your QR code, you will not be screened on that day. While you are pending your results, you will need to remain in your vehicle or wait outside until your results are ready; you can not return to campus while your results are pending. If you test positive you can not return to campus until you have a negative PCR test or clearance from your medical professional. Reminder, this is not required. Voluntary only. Registration is open until 2 pm on Friday, Feb. 26th. If you do not register by 2 pm you can register for the next testing time as this will be offered every two weeks. You must fill out both links to test.
