*To be considered fully vaccinated last shot of a two series vaccine must be at least 14 days prior. There is no booster requirement for individuals under 18. For individuals 18 and over, the requirement is to be fully up to date with vaccination. Meaning the individual has received a booster if they are booster eligible.
After an exposure or a positive case individuals must follow a stronger mask regimen for days 6-10. Individuals must wear a high quality and well-fitted mask inside and outside, through day 10. They may only remove their masks to eat and drink, and they must eat and drink outside.
After a sickness, students may return with a negative test, improved symptoms and so long as they have gone over 24 hours without a fever or fever reducing medication. At the beginning of an illness the viral load may be too low to detect Covid with rapid test. If you test at symptom onset and continue to not feel well enough to return to school, it is recommended by Dr. Sisson that you test again 1-3 days after initial test.
While the above chart is extensive, it doesn’t cover all scenarios, so please inform the school of your child’s situation as soon as possible and we will share the requirements. At times, the Davis Waldorf School may decide to follow a stricter policy than the county requires, such as requiring vaccinated individuals in the same household to quarantine for a period before coming on campus. This is done to support the rest of the class in remaining healthy and to minimize further disruption to school and your child’s learning.
