If your child has been exposed to COVID they must remain home for 14 days even if they receive a negative test. You can develop symptoms up to 14 days post exposure.
Please read this post regarding Covid Testing and School Excuses:
We are following the SCHOOL ALGORITHM provided to us by the American Academy of Pediatrics and will provide school excuses based off of this.
If one of our patients is symptomatic and has a negative PCR Covid test at our office we will provide a school excuse for this child to return to school WHEN this child has been fever free for 24 hours and his/her symptoms have improved to mild or none.
If one of our patients is asymptomatic but has had a known exposure to Covid and was sent home from school, this child may be tested at our office BUT must still quarantine for 14 days. If this child’s test is positive for Covid, they must quarantine for 10 days. The difference in 10 days vs 14 days is that the positive Covid patient has 10 days of potentially shedding the virus. The patient that has to quarantine for 14 days, must do so as this patient may still become infected with Covid up to 14 days after their exposure.
*Note- Many schools are requiring that your child’s school excuse come from their Primary Care Provider or PCP. We will not be able to give an excuse for any tests not performed at our office.*

Reach Out and Read-Alabama
20 hrs ·
Thanks to so many generous donors, so much has been accomplished, even during a year that has been anything but normal. Reach Out and Read-Alabama will continue to focus on #MakingConnections that begin in the pediatric healthcare providers’ offices as they prescribe books to support families in understanding their children’s developmental milestones. The connection then continues in the home as families read books together, fostering healthy brain development and creating strong parent-child bonds that last a lifetime.
With your help, we can accomplish so much more in 2021! We’ll move forward together to create a broader vision for Alabama’s children and their families.
As you consider your giving plans for year-end, we hope that you will choose to help the families we serve through a gift to Reach Out and Read-Alabama.
