| BSD: COVID-19 Testing | In the upcoming weeks, BSD will offer COVID-19 screening and diagnostic testing in schools. Doing so will allow us to more rapidly determine infections in our buildings and take a proactive approach to minimizing potential outbreaks. Testing will be optional, but highly encouraged as we work to keep our BSD community safe. District administration is currently in the process of finalizing the procedures, permission requirements for testing, and other details, which will be shared as they are available. More information on diagnostic testing and screening testing can be found on our COVID-19 Testing in Bellevue School District webpage and will be updated as more details become available. Please visit the district COVID-19 Health and Safety webpage for more information about our current health and safety measures. |
