Test to Stay is a voluntary COVID-19 prevention strategy that allows students who are identified as a close contact to a case of COVID-19 to continue to attend school and participate in extracurricular activities in modified quarantine for seven days after the last day of exposure. To participate in Test to Stay, students will need to opt-in to completing an antigen testing cadence for COVID-19, remain symptom-free, and test negative to be able to remain in school and participate in extracurricular activities over their seven day quarantine period.
If a parent does not want their student to participate in the voluntary Test to Stay Program, that student will be required to quarantine in accordance with current recommendations outlined in the Montgomery County Office of Public Health.
