Quarantine Information: If you have a quarantine at your site, please make sure you contact any and all staff about their quarantine. When the tracing sheet is shared, please indicate which staff members need to quarantine. Personnel staff will follow up with a letter. If you have questions on how to contact someone (i.e. a substitute who was on your site) please feel free to reach out to Melinda Pon or Amy Davey for contact information. Thanks!

FAQ’s regarding COVID at work
Please click here for some commonly asked questions from staff regarding COVID-19. We will continue to update this sheet as more questions come in. Thank you.


New questions and answers:


-I’ve been vaccinated, should I still participate in surveillance testing each week?

Knowing that the vaccines are not 100% effective in preventing the virus, you are welcome to continue surveillance testing when it is offered at your site each week. 


-My surveillance test came back presumptive positive or positive but I’m vaccinated and feel fine. What gives?

The PCR tests that are administered through our Surveillance testing are some of the most sensitive and accurate in the State. A result from this test should be taken as a final result and we shall act accordingly with quarantine and isolation procedures. There is no need to go get another test to verify the Surveillance test result. The Surveillance test is not a screener, it is a highly sensitive PCR test for COVID. Presumptive positive or positive results indicate there is a viral load of COVID in the person who tested. 


-I’ve been vaccinated, do I need to quarantine if I am exposed to a positive case?

If you are and remain asymptomatic and it has been at least two weeks since your second vaccination, you will not need to quarantine for at least 3 months. 

Example:

1st vaccination:  February 1

2nd vaccination: March 1

Quarantine is NOT required from March 15-June 1


Please report your exposure using the Staff Symptom Screener, for District-wide tracking purposes. 


Surveillance Testing
In partnership with California Health and Human Services, RCSD proudly offers COVID-19 surveillance testing for its asymptomatic employees on a once-a-week basis starting in March. 
This testing is for RCSD Staff and on-site daycare agency staff only. Staff must register ONCE through the Color Platform and then test at their assigned site. Staff may not test at other sites without permission by the COVID Response Team. See your administrator or supervisor for details.

Placer Food Bank Linked above is a resource for the Placer Food Bank public food distribution schedule. This is something helpful to keep in hand for families in need not only during the holidays, but all year long. LiveScan Update The Roseville PD is no longer doing live scans for fingerprinting. Please refer parents to other resources. Fire Marshall Inspection Follow-up was completed with the fire inspector to clarify what each school site needs to have posted. Please review the following and make sure your site is ready to go. In the front office/in safety plan binder- easy to access: - Post the telephone number for the fire department. - List of who does what during a fire emergency. In each room by the door: - Post an evacuation map. - Instructions for what to do in an emergency (how do you account for kids, communicate, etc). This would be the evacuation part of your tactical plan. If your site has backpacks with the instructions in them, then there should be something posted

BUSINESS SERVICES Assemblies Involving Animals If you are hosting an assembly at your site that involves animals you may need to have parents sign the SIG Activities Waiver. All assemblies that involve animals on campus should be communicated to parents before the event. This can be done through an email, newsletter, blog, etc. If your students WILL be touching the animals, parents must fill out the SIG Activities Waiver. If your students will NOT be touching animals and will only be looking at the animals from a distance, you do not need to have parents fill out the waiver. Contact Amy Banks or Schelli Landreth with questions. EDUCATIONAL SERVICES LCFF Funds If you are placing any orders using LCFF money, here is a helpful resource to look at when determining if LCFF can be used. When in doubt, always reach out to your coach or Rachael.
