COVID-19 Information
Dallastown Area School District is committed to keeping our families, staff, students, and community members informed during the
COVID-19 pandemic.
This web page services as a hub for updates related to COVID-19 with the District. The situation surrounding COVID-19 is evolving each day. We will regularly update this page as our plans continue to take shape. We encourage you to stay engaged and continue to check back for the most up-to-date information.
WHAT IF MY STUDENT IS POSITIVE FOR COVID-19?
Return to school/ work when fever-free for 24 hours, without taking fever-reducing medication AND with improved symptoms.
For any absence greater than three days, a provider note will be needed for extended absence (if no proof of positive test-students only). Student absence will be coded as an ‘Absence Excused’ for reported COVID cases that do not include a positive test result or provider letter.
We will accept a picture of a positive COVID test. This will permit an absence of up to five days of absence. This code will expire upon the conclusion of the 2023-2024 school year.
Parents/Guardians should log in to the Skyward Family Access Center to enter their child’s absence(s).
