COVID-19 Resources

COVID-19 Reporting Process

If your student has been in close contact (as defined by the CDC below) or receives a positive COVID-19 diagnosis, this information must be reported to Linda Johnson, This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.. 

Close contact is defined by CDC as someone who was within 6 feet of an infected person for a cumulative total of 15 minutes or more over a 24-hour period starting from 2 days before illness onset (or, for asymptomatic patients, 2 days prior to test specimen collection) until the time the patient is isolated. 

If your student is showing any symptoms, please do not have them come to campus or join in-person activities. It is critical that we each continue to take measures to protect ourselves and our community against COVID-19, including following the CDC guidelines: 

• Wear a high-quality mask that covers your nose and mouth to help protect yourself and others.
• Stay 6 feet apart from others who don’t live with you.
• Avoid crowds.
• Avoid poorly ventilated indoor spaces.
• Wash your hands often with soap and water. Use hand sanitizer if soap and water aren’t available.

HVAC 

• We have MERV-13 filters at our Main Campus which were recently changed on Monday, January 25, 2021. These filters are changed quarterly per OHSA requirements. MERV-13 filters are suitable for superior commercial, general surgery, hospital rooms, and smoking lounges.
• The Satellite Campus HVAC control system was upgraded in 2019. The upgrade included full balancing of the system following the installation of 78 Carrier CCN VAV controllers and 78 T-55 wall sensors. The ventilation system is set to 40% open to outside air. MERV 13 filters have been installed. There is now quarterly maintenance on the system and the last maintenance took place on January 20, 2021. 
• Classrooms and counselor’s offices are all equipped with portable Azeus air purifiers which include HEPA filters and UV lighting.

Testing 

Prior to beginning hybrid learning, we will be providing COVID testing and asking all students, faculty, and staff to participate. We are partnering with NW Mobile Testing in this initiative. 

After returning to campus we will continue partnering with NW Mobile Testing to provide surveillance testing. Students and staff members will be tested once per month. Testing will take place on Wednesdays and Fridays, with 25% of our population tested each week. 

Additionally, Edison will provide have self-administered onsite tests available for individuals who develop symptoms over the course of the school day (This is in alignment with the requirements set forth by ODE).

TRAVEL/QUARANTINE

Per the CDC, you should quarantine for ten (10) days with no symptoms or for seven (7) days with a negative test when one of the following applies to you:
- Traveling out of state
- Come in close contact with someone who has a confirmed or presumed case of COVID-19.
