COVID-19 Update Icon

Dear Chatham CSD Parents and Guardians,

 Chatham Central School District has received additional COVID-19 at-home rapid antigen test kits from NYS, which we are making available to our families upon request. If you would like to receive a test kit, please contact your child’s school to make arrangements. Parents are no longer required to pick up the test kit themselves and may instead request to have the test kit sent home with your student.

 To help keep the virus out of our schools, we strongly encourage you to test your children if they are experiencing symptoms or have been exposed to a positive individual.  

A reminder that students who are experiencing COVID symptoms must remain home and follow quarantine/isolation guidelines, even with a negative at-home test. A lab-confirmed negative test or a differential diagnosis from their health care provider is required in order to return to school prior to the completion of the quarantine period.

Sincerely,

Dr. Sal DeAngelo
Superintendent of School
