Covid-19 Updates and Information
GUSD COVID Testing Framework
Testing for COVID-19 remains an essential tool to decrease transmission, keep students and staff safe, and keep schools open for in-person instruction while mitigating the COVID-19 pandemic.
CDPH strongly recommends that schools facilitate access to testing, particularly for vulnerable populations within their communities. Testing, especially of symptomatic individuals and those exposed to a positive COVID-19 case, remains an important for minimizing transmission and keeping students in the classroom for in-person instruction.
GUSD has adopted the CDPH Guidelines as a safe tactic for keeping students, families, and staff healthy.
