Dear WVUSD Staff,

Today, Los Angeles County Department of Public Health released updated school-based temporary COVID-19 standards and measures. To immediately implement these measures, WVUSD will be sending the attached parent communication to all WVUSD families this evening. Additionally, I wanted to provide you with the updated WVUSD Employee Quarantine Chart and additional COVID-19 information that reflects these temporary changes.

These Temporary Employee Quarantine Standards are in place until further notice.

Close Contact is defined as:

Within 6 feet of the infected person for more than 15 cumulative minutes over a 24 hour period
Unmasked contact with the infected person regardless of time

CONFIRMED CASE OF COVID-19

If you have a confirmed case of COVID-19, please follow the current district procedure. Per the new public health order, the isolation period may now be reduced to a minimum of five days if you:

Receive a negative follow up viral (antigen) test on Day 5 or later (PCR Tests are not recommended if you initially tested positive as the test will most likely indicate you are positive).

In order to get an antigen test through Brea Clinic, you must be confirmed by your site as COVID-19 positive. Your site will notify Kina Mattoon, who will make arrangements with Brea Clinic for you to receive an antigen test. Brea will not accept walk-ins for antigens requesting to be billed to WVUSD.

Have lessening symptoms
Do not have a fever without fever-reducing medication for at least 24 hours
