Does a parent need to be present?
*A parent or legal guardian needs to attend to consent to the COVID testing. If a non-custodial adult brings the student for COVID testing, that student should bring a copy of the parent’s/guardian’s driver’s license and a letter granting permission for the student to have COVID testing. This method will also be allowed for student-athletes that come in testing.

What do I need to bring with me? There are TWO separate items you must bring:
You must bring a Parent/Guardian* and:
1. Either your health insurance card, driver’s license or social security number (or that of a Parent/Guardian)
AND
2. You must bring your Student ID number.

Do I need an appointment to be tested during these times?
No, testing will be on a first-come, first-served basis in the drive-through format. Pre-registering will save time on-site, but appointments will not be followed.

Do I need to pre-register for testing?
Yes, pre-registering a day on advance is highly recommended (not required) and will save time on-site. Go to http://www.freecovidtesting.us and choose RCPS Return to School from the quick registration drop-down. During pre-registration on this website, it will ask you to choose an appointment time. THESE ARE NOT REAL APPOINTMENT TIMES. Please be aware that we are serving first-come, first-served in the drive-through line during the scheduled times, not by appointment times selected on this site.

If I have more than one student, will I have to complete multiple registrations?
Yes, each individual will need to complete the quick registration, either in advance or on-site.

When will I get my results?
Standard PCR results should be received in approximately 24 hours of being tested. Further details will be given at the time of testing. Results may be delayed slightly for those who do not pre-register.

What is the format of testing, do I go in the school?
No, these testing opportunities will be drive-through or walk-up. It is preferred that students and parents remain in their vehicle to be tested.

Can I bring family members to be tested with me?
RCPS students, age 5 and above, and their parents may be tested.

What if my results are positive?
Please plan for virtual instruction and avoid team athletics until cleared by a physician or at least 10 days have passed since symptoms first appeared and symptoms have resolved. Please contact your school or coach and notify them of your positive results.

What if I have symptoms and I am waiting on my results?
If you are unwell, you should not enter any RCPS campus until those symptoms have been resolved. If you receive a positive test result plan for virtual instruction and avoid team athletics until cleared by a physician or at least 10 days have passed since symptoms first appeared and symptoms have resolved. Please contact your school or coach and notify them of your positive results.

¿Es necesario que un padre esté presente?
* Un padre o tutor legal debe asistir para dar su consentimiento para la prueba COVID. Si un adulto sin custodia trae al estudiante para la prueba de COVID, ese estudiante debe traer una copia de la licencia de conducir del padre / tutor y una carta otorgando permiso para que el estudiante se someta a la prueba de COVID. Este método también se permitirá para los estudiantes-atletas que se presenten en las pruebas.

¿Qué necesito traer conmigo? Hay DOS artículos separados que debe traer:
Debe traer un padre / tutor * y:
1. Su tarjeta de seguro médico, licencia de conducir o número de seguro social (o el de un padre o tutor)
Y
2. Debe traer su número de identificación de estudiante.

¿Necesito una cita para hacerme la prueba durante estos horarios?
No, las pruebas se realizarán por orden de llegada en el formato drive-through. La preinscripción ahorrará tiempo en el lugar, pero no se seguirán las citas.

¿Necesito preinscribirme para la prueba?
Sí, se recomienda encarecidamente registrarse con un día de anticipación (no es obligatorio) y le ahorrará tiempo en el sitio. Vaya a http://www.freecovidtesting.us y elija RCPS Return to School en el menú desplegable de registro rápido. Durante la preinscripción en este sitio web, se le pedirá que elija una hora de cita. ESTOS NO SON HORARIOS DE CITA REAL. Tenga en cuenta que atendemos por orden de llegada en la línea de autoservicio durante los horarios programados, no según los horarios de cita seleccionados en este sitio.

Si tengo más de un estudiante, ¿tendré que completar varios registros?
Sí, cada individuo deberá completar el registro rápido, ya sea por adelantado o en el sitio.

¿Cuándo obtendré mis resultados?
Los resultados de PCR estándar deben recibirse aproximadamente a las 24 horas de haber sido analizados. Se darán más detalles en el momento de la prueba. Los resultados pueden retrasarse levemente para aquellos que no se preinscriben.

¿Cuál es el formato de las pruebas, voy a la escuela?
No, estas oportunidades de prueba serán en automóvil o sin cita previa. Se prefiere que los estudiantes y los padres permanezcan en su vehículo para realizar la prueba.

¿Puedo llevar a miembros de mi familia para que se hagan la prueba conmigo?
Los estudiantes de RCPS, de 5 años o más, y sus padres pueden ser evaluados.

¿Y si mis resultados son positivos?
Por favor, planifique la instrucción virtual y evite el atletismo en equipo hasta que lo autorice un médico o hasta que hayan pasado al menos 10 días desde que aparecieron los primeros síntomas y los síntomas se han resuelto. Comuníquese con su escuela o entrenador y notifique sus resultados positivos.

¿Qué pasa si tengo síntomas y estoy esperando mis resultados?
Si no se encuentra bien, no debe ingresar a ningún campus de RCPS hasta que esos síntomas se hayan resuelto. Si recibe un resultado positivo en la prueba, planifique la instrucción virtual y evite el atletismo en equipo hasta que lo autorice un médico o hayan pasado al menos 10 días desde que aparecieron los primeros síntomas y los síntomas se resolvieron. Comuníquese con su escuela o entrenador y notifique sus resultados positivos.
