Reporting All COVID Tests Results to Primary Health |
||
Thank you for informing us of your positive Covid-19 cases and exposures in your household and for following the guidelines for Isolation and Quarantine to help prevent the virus from spreading to our schools. ALL tests done at home for students and staff should be reported to Primary Health. This includes home tests provided by the school or those purchased/obtained elsewhere. Please report both positive and negative results. Doing so will ensure we can continue to provide tests to students and staff through the CDPH School Covid-19 testing program. If you have not yet registered in Primary Health, you may do so by clicking here. A link for reporting results has been sent to everyone currently registered in Primary Health; contact covidresponse@rossvalleyschools.org if you have questions or need assistance. Anyone who is NOT a student or staff member in RVSD, should use the Marin County Self-test Reporting form for reporting at-home Covid test results. |
