REPORTING
Once Meridian's Health Team is notified of a positive case on campus and have verified that the person was on campus when potentially contagious, here's what happens:
1) Parents/guardians will be notified directly if their student has come in close contact with someone who has tested positive on campus.
2) Parents/guardians of students in classrooms with a positive case on campus will receive a general notification letter.
3) The dashboard is updated to reflect totals.
