Those identified close contacts will complete a ten-day quarantine before returning to the school building. Parents were notified through the ACPS Blackboard notification system if there was a positive case in their child's school building.

ACPS had five staff members who were reported as quarantined this week due to either a close contact with a positive person, or Covid Like Illness (CLI). ACPS had 116 students reported as quarantined this week due to either a close contact with a positive person, or Covid Like Illness (CLI).
