From the School Nurse: Updated Quarantine Guidelines

There have been a couple of recent changes to the quarantine guidelines. Most recently, the Massachusetts Department of Public Health adopted the new CDC quarantine guidelines. There are three options: 7 day, 10 day and 14 day. Each option has criteria that must be met. The options are explained in the graphic below.

Changes can cause some confusion...please let me know if you have any questions.
