• School Guidance

  Schools are not universally affected by a county's change in tiers. Regardless of what tier a county falls into, it is recommended that a school closes when at least 5% of staff and students test positive for COVID-19 within 14 days, and school districts should close if one-quarter of schools in the districts are closed due to COVID-19 cases.
