Step 1: Stop automatically excluding students and faculty exposed to Covid-19 and instead
Step 2: Implement Test-to-Stay daily antigen or daily rapid PCR testing of those exposed while also
Step 3: Require CDC compliant masks through the 2021-2022 peak winter viral transmission period
Step 4: Continue universal masking during high/moderate periods of viral transmission until Covid-19 vaccines are added to list of vaccines required for school attendance
