FREE Weekly COVID-19 Screenings
As you know, our main priority is to get all children back in school and keep them in school.
District 33 has partnered with the Trilab to screen students and staff members for COVID-19 infection.
Why Screen for COVID-19?
- Regular Screening is critical - asymptomatic or pre-symptomatic individuals do 50% of the spread.
- Individuals become contagious before symptoms appear. Screening can detect the virus before it becomes transmissible.
- Weekly screening helps prevent the spread of COVID, therefore, keeping more kids in school and reducing quarantine time.
We will continue with weekly COVID screening of all students who have a Parental Consent Form on file with our partner Trilab. If you have not submitted a consent form for your child to participate in the weekly COVID screening, we encourage you to do so now.
Please continue to report symptoms, close contacts, travel, and positive cases to our COVID Liaisons at covid-studentreporting@wego33.org. This information is of the utmost importance as we continue to monitor COVID-19 cases.
Note: If a parent decides they no longer want their child to participate in weekly screenings, they may opt out at any time by contacting covid-studentreporting@wego33.org.
