Newly Revised Guidance regarding COVID exposure.                                 January 26, 2022

This is the latest information:

• We have plenty of N-95 and surgical grade masks for all staff and students. Masks are available at the front gate for students. Employees can pick up masks in the Attendance Office. N-95 masks can be worn more than just for 1 day.  

• Per Cal/OSHA, employees must have their rapid test administered and read at a testing center (West Valley Occupational Center, Zelzah Site-6505 Zelzah Ave. Reseda, CA) post a positive result

• Students (but not employees) are allowed to use FDA approved at-home antigen tests post a positive result
