Statesboro High School

Report a COVID-19-related absences online with any digital device. You no longer need to call your school. 

When should I submit a COVID-19 report?

• The student or employee has tested positive for COVID.
• The student or employee has COVID symptoms after a close contact within the last 14 days.
• The student or employee has been a close contact outside of school to someone who has tested positive.

Note:

• If the student or employee is fully vaccinated or has recovered from COVID-19 in the last 90 days, please review the Georgia Department of Public Health Quarantine Guidance. Do not submit a report if you are not required to quarantine, unless symptomatic.
• You do not need to submit a report if you were identified as a close contact that occurred at school. This information is already known to the school district.
• If you are unable to report your absence online, which is preferred, you may contact your school.

Use this online reporting tool to submit a COVID absence report.

Bulloch County Schools will provide a weekly report of confirmed-positive cases of COVID-19 and close contacts identified through evidence-based protocols. School nurses will provide a weekly report to the Georgia Department Public Health, and the school district will provide that same data to the public on this website. Reporting resumed on August 1, in prepartation for the school district's first day of school, which was August. 2, 2021.

View the school district's weekly reports here.

Use this online calculator from the Department of Public Health to determine how long you should isolate or quarantine. 

• Confirmed-positive cases of COVID-19 must isolate.
• Close contacts with a confirmed-positive case outside of school must quarantine, unless they are fully vaccinated.
• Close contacts to a confirmed-positive case inside the school environment are not required to quarantine whether they are vaccinated or not. It is optional. Bulloch County Schools has exercised the opportunity provided by the Department of Public Health guidelines to allow students who have been exposed to a confirmed COVID case at school to remain at school and not quarantine as long as they remain asymptomatic. If your child was a close contact at school, we strongly encourage and emphasize for them to wear a mask while at school for at least two weeks after their exposure date. While this is not a mandate, it is encouragement for everyone to be considerate of others. 
• Distance learning is provided for students during their isolation or quarantine period. The parent or child may contact the child's teacher(s) via email to obtain information about assignments. 

Order free weekly meals for virtual students. Free breakfast and lunch meals are available to children who are enrolled in the Bulloch County Virtual Learning Program and children who are isolated or quarantined at home temporarily due to COVID-19.
