Respiratory Virus Isolation Guidance

Walker County Schools  follow the CDC's respiratory virus isolation guidance for illness such as Covid-19, Influenza (flu), and Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV).

For respiratory illnesses such as Covid-19, flu, or RSV, individuals may return to school and normal activities if the following is true for at least 24 hours: symptoms have mostly resolved with overall improvement and if a fever was present, the fever has been gone without use of fever-reducing medication.

Please reach out to your school nurse with any questions as to when your child can return to school and other school sponsored activities.

For more information, please see the CDC website pages regarding Covid-19, Influenza (Flu), and Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV)
