COVID Testing Locations

Testing Sites for COVID-19


DISTRICT 39 CAN ONLY ACCEPT A NEGATIVE PCR or NAAT COVID-19 TEST RESULT. RAPID ANTIGEN TESTING CANNOT BE ACCEPTED AS A FORM OF RETURN TO SCHOOL DOCUMENTATION. Rapid antigen testing can have a high false-negative result with a test that occurs early on at the beginning of symptoms. In accordance with CCDPH guidance, the District can only accept a PCR/NAAT COVID test or alternate medical diagnosis and statement of no suspicion of COVID from your child’s physician for clearance to return to school. (Please keep in mind, COVID testing cannot shorten a quarantine period. Testing can only be used to diagnose a COVID positive individual or, in the case of a negative PCR testing for symptomatic individuals, allow for a return to school.) While awaiting diagnostic PCR/NAAT test results, everyone in the household must quarantine at home.

Ambry PCR Testing (Diagnostic PCR test). Ambry Diagnostic PCR Testing is available to students and staff of District 39 who are symptomatic or have a concern about exposure. Ambry testing kits can be picked up from your student’s school nurse. When you arrive, please bring your insurance card so we can copy the front and back for you. You will be provided with the Test Requisition Form and the HIPPA Form to complete, along with testing materials and the saliva collection instructions. A copy of the front and back of the insurance card must be provided to receive a kit. A $20 fee for processing will be charged to the RevTrack account. Once completed, the testing kit must be dropped off at a FedEx location and results will be sent to the school nurse (typically within 2-3 days of receiving the sample.) While awaiting the diagnostic PCR test results, everyone in the household must quarantine at home.
