What to do if your student stays home from school sick

Woodland students who stay home from school with certain symptoms must provide a negative test for COVID-19 before being permitted to return to school. Unfortunately, COVID-19 symptoms are similar to many forms of illness and include the following:

  • Fever or chills;
  • Shortness of breath or difficulty breathing;
  • Muscle or body aches;
  • New loss of taste or smell

However, while some symptoms require students to provide a negative COVID-19 test, others do not.
