Superintendent Marty Pollio told members of the Jefferson County Board of Education last week that the district would bring a test-to-stay program for their consideration at a future board meeting, though he also stressed the importance of vaccinations in curbing quarantines.
If a JCPS student or employee is close contact of someone with COVID-19, they now have the option to not quarantine.
The new program, which took effect Monday, gives JCPS students the option to skip a mandatory quarantine after coming in close contact with someone infected with COVID-19.
