The Weekly COVID Safety Check (i.e. Pooled Testing) is taking place at Northampton High School every week on Tuesday morning during First Block.
This is one of many tools we are using to make our schools safer for students and staff and to improve attendance.
Parent/guardian consent for testing covers two types of testing, the weekly COVID Safety Checks where the students swab the front part of their nose themselves and the BinaxNow Rapid test that is available to be done in the Nurse’s Office for those students who have consent and present with one mild symptom during the school day. You only have to give consent online once.
If you have not done so already, please consider providing consent for your student to be tested at NHS by using this link: https://www.cic-health.com/consent/ma
