Several North Texas school districts are re-evaluating their isolation period for COVID positive cases.
Dallas reduced its isolation period to five days, and Fort Worth also changed it to five earlier this week.
In Dallas, multiple drive-thru testing sites opened this week, including the Samuell Grand Aquatics Center."Yeah, it’s very efficient," said Claire Jordan, who got tested Friday. However, Friday, the TEA updated its guidelines for infected staff, saying staff members who aren’t experiencing symptoms can now only isolate for five days.
