Travel ProtocolsReminder:
As we approach Spring Vacation (April 26-30), please be advised of the DHHS travel guidance and NH COVID-19 Travel Guidance . Below are the highlights:
Domestic travel within the US no longer requires quarantine upon return to NH (this includes domestic travel to US territories)
Even though a person may not be required to quarantine after Domestic travel, the CDC does suggest that people seek testing 3-5 days after travel for asymptomatic SARS-CoV-2 infection; testing is recommended and helpful to identify positive cases- testing by PCR is recommended. Your child may attend school while awaiting their PCR test for domestic travel if asymptomatic.
International travel continues to require a 10 day quarantine, or a 7 day quarantine with a PCR test on day 6-7 with a negative test result.
Travel on a cruise ship also requires a 10 day quarantine, or a 7 day quarantine with a PCR test on day 6-7 with a negative test result.
Everyone who chooses to travel, regardless of vaccination status or prior immunity, should wear a well fitted, multi-layer face mask, physically distance (i.e. maintain at least 6 feet from other people), avoid large groups and gatherings, frequently sanitize hands, and self-monitor for symptoms.
If your child is symptomatic after travel your child should isolate and get tested, and parents inform the school nurse.
