February Take-Home Test Kit Distribution
February 16, 2022
Dear Sac City Unified Families,
As part of our ongoing commitment to the health and safety of our community, our district ordered 88,000 take-home testing kits as an additional measure to minimize COVID-19 spread in our schools. This week, check your student’s backpacks for FREE take-home COVID-19 tests! We’re excited to be able to distribute these kits to EVERY SCUSD student and staff member over the next two days, Thursday and Friday, in advance of the upcoming 3-day weekend.
Please test your student on Monday, which is a school holiday in observance of President’s Day, before they return to school on Tuesday, February 22. We will also be opening Serna’s testing center 10am-4pm on Monday, February 21 to provide testing services to our entire community.
Whatever test result you get, we want to know! Reporting your negative, inconclusive or positive result to Primary Health helps us get the clearest picture of our community case rate and keep our community safe.
