Student tests positive for COVID at Madison Elementary School, no other students or staff affected
The Desert Sands Unified School District announced that there was a positive COVID case at James Madison Elementary School in Indio earlier this week.
DSUSD s Assistant Superintendent of Student Services Laura Fisher confirmed that no students or staff were deemed close contacts, due to all the masks and distancing guidelines in place. There will be no quarantines for students or staff.
Fisher says the student will be isolated for 10 days and return to school after meeting the required return to school criteria, which falls in line with the California Department of Public Health.
