• No symptoms present (or improving) AND a rapid antigen test (not PCR) collected on day 5 (example: symptoms started Monday, Day 5 is Saturday) or later is negative AND test provided to school/supervisor. 
• **Home tests distributed by CVESD and uploaded may be used to release students from isolation through 1/27/22 per CDPH and County of San Diego.**
