TUCSON, Ariz. (KOLD News 13) - Aiming to keep students and teachers safe this school year, Arizona State University and the state health department are providing free COVID-19 resources for two K-12 school districts in Tucson.
“We are offering 14 school districts across Arizona access to screening testing so that’s randomized testing for asymptomatic individuals for at least 20% of their faculty and staff on a weekly basis,” said Michelle Villegas-Gold.
Villegas-Gold is ASU’s Manager of Health and Clinical Research. She said staff at Tucson Unified School District and Amphi Public Schools will receive free testing starting this month.
