Amid an ongoing dispute over whether Arizona school districts can require unvaccinated students to quarantine, the state s second-largest school district will make quarantining optional for students without symptoms who are exposed to COVID-19 unless community spread or active cases in the school reach a specific threshold.
The policy allows students who have been exposed to COVID-19 the option to quarantine for up to 10 days but does not mandate it unless they are symptomatic or the county reaches high community spread at the same time as campus spread is above 1%-2%, depending on the grade level.
The approach comes after the Governor s Office told two districts to change their quarantine policies.
