Illness Protocols
The City of Austin and Travis County have lifted all COVID-19 emergency rules and orders. All eligible students are strongly encouraged to get vaccinated and boosted for COVID-19.
If a student is feeling ill, regardless of whether they are vaccinated for COVID-19, they should stay home and contact their medical provider. Ill students may return to normal activities when they are fever-free for at least 24 hours, without taking fever-reducing medication.
Once students resume normal activities, they are encouraged to take additional prevention strategies for the next 5 days to curb disease spread, such as:
- Enhancing hygiene practices

- Getting tested for respiratory viruses
