Travel Policy

/in /by

As noted in Mrs. Zorger’s letter sent out earlier this week, at this time schools in the Archdiocese of Hartford are following the CDC’s guidelines for the return to school protocol after travel.

Families should call the SJS Nurse – Mrs. Vignati (860.643.5088, option 3) – to further discuss return-to-school protocol and dates of absence PRIOR to travel.

The return to school protocol is detailed below as well as summarized in THIS CHART:

 

DOMESTIC TRAVEL
If traveling outside of Connecticut for more than 24 hours (but still within the United States), students and staff must meet the following criteria prior to returning to the classroom:

Unvaccinated Individuals
*Get tested with a viral test 3-5 days after travel AND stay home and self-quarantine for a full 7 days after travel (negative test results must be provided to the school before returning);

*If you don’t wish to get tested, stay home and self-quarantine for 10 days after returning from travel.

In both cases, self-monitor for COVID-19 symptoms; isolate and get tested if symptoms of illness develop.

Fully Vaccinated Individuals
(or recovered from COVID-19 in the past 90 days)
Self-monitor for COVID-19 symptoms; isolate and get tested if you develop symptoms.  No quarantine or test required to return to school.
