    COVID-19 Protocol for WCS:

    • The school is informed and reports daily to the state all students, teachers and staff who have been tested for COVID-19
    • The school prepares a contact tracing spreadsheet in case of a positive result
    • The Department of Health, from the county of residence, of the positive individual, is responsible to complete all contact tracing
    • If the positive individual was in school during the contagious time period (determined by the Health Department), the school is contacted
    • The school then must report the positive student, teacher or staff member on the daily state website which is upload into https://schoolcovidreportcard.health.ny.gov/#/home
    • The school sends the prepared contact tracing spreadsheet to the person in charge of the contact tracing
    • As a courtesy, administration has reached out to each family who was directly impacted by the positive individuals via Global Connect, personal phone call or face to face conversations
    • Confidentiality for each case is imperative
    • It is important to note, we are only able to report confirmed cases with a positive test result as reported by the Department of Health from each county
