SCHOOL NEWS

On-Campus COVID Testing: Volunteers needed!

Greetings DWS Community,


Davis Waldorf has the opportunity to provide on-campus COVID-19 testing to staff and students. With the training and support of Healthy Davis Together, this parent/staff-volunteer pilot model will help us keep our school open and our students and staff safe. To accomplish this task, we need your help.


Below you will find the job descriptions for our testing team. Please take a few moments to read through each one. If you can help, please fill out the form below:


PARENT / STAFF VOLUNTEER INTEREST FORM


Our school will start with 1 day (~4 hours) of testing per week. The day of the week will be determined in conjunction with Healthy Davis Together at a later date.

If you have any questions, please contact Jennifer Slater at director@daviswaldorf.org.

Volunteers will be trained on each job to ensure coverage. Our testing environment will follow strict guidelines and PPE and cleaning equipment will be provided to keep you protected.


A testing team consists of the following:


  • Greeter: confirms that the individual is not symptomatic and has had no known recent exposure.


  • Technology/registration attendant: looks up the individual in the testing system to ensure they are registered and have filled out all necessary waivers. Assists with student and family registration.


  • Sample collectors: Explains the testing process, collects the sample, and places the specimen into a tube collection rack.
