Eagle Ridge Academy Staff and Student COVID-19 Guidelines
When staff members/students test positive for COVID-19, the guidance is to:
- Staff/students should contact the school nurse with a positive COVID-19 test to excuse absences.
- Stay home for 5 days (Day 0 is the first day of symptoms or the day of a positive COVID-19 test, whichever comes first).
- If you have no fever without taking fever reducing medication for at least 24 hours and your symptoms are improving after 5 days, you can return to work/school on Day 6.
- Upon returning to work/school, you must wear a well-fitted face covering for 5 additional days (Days 6-10).
Masking:
Students or staff may choose to wear face coverings at Eagle Ridge Academy. If a student or staff member tests positive for COVID-19, they should follow the masking guidance outlined in Isolation Procedure.
Contract Tracing:
Eagle Ridge Academy is not currently contract tracing or recommending quarantine for COVID-19 exposures. This decision is based on guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH). The district will continue to review and adjust as needed.
