Covid-19 Updates for Staff (updated January 2024)
As an ongoing effort to keeping SUSD students and employees exposure to COVID-19 at a minimal, the District requests that staff practice the following protocol when testing positive for COVID-19:

  1. Complete the Qualtrics survey at: www.stocktonusd.net/screening.
  2. Take a picture of your positive results. If it is a home test, write your name and the date on it. Email results to: riskmgt@stocktonusd.net.
  3. Enter your absences into Frontline as SICK. (employees/sites are responsible for inputting their leaves).

Employees are required to report a positive covid test and follow the recommended isolation and quarantine periods based on CDPH requirements

Recommendations for people who TEST POSITIVE

  • Stay home if you have COVID-19 symptoms, until you have not had a fever for 24 hours without using fever reducing medication AND other COVID-19 symptoms​ are mild and improving.​
    • ​​If you do not have symptoms, you should follow the recommendations below to reduce exposure to others.
  • Mask when you are around other people indoors for the 10 days* after you become sick or test positive (if no symptoms). You may remove your mask sooner than 10 days if you have two sequential negative tests at least one day apart. Day 0 is symptom onset date or positive test date.
  • Avoid contact with people at higher-risk for severe COVID-19 for 10 days*. Higher-risk individuals include the elderly, those who live in congregate care facilities, those who have immunocompromising conditions, and that put them at higher risk for serious illness.

Recommendation for close contacts of cases

  • If you have new COVID-19 symptoms, you should test and mask right away.
  • If you do not have symptoms, and are at higher risk of severe COVID-19 infection and would benefit from treatment, you should test within 5 days.
  • If you do not have symptoms and have contact with people who are at higher risk for severe infection, you should mask indoors when around such people for 10 days. Consider testing within 5 days after the last exposure date (Day 0) and before contact with higher-risk people. For further details, see CDPH COVID-1​9 tes​​ting guidance​.​

Supplemental Paid Sick Leave Expired December 31, 2022 

Employers with 26 or more employees had to provide 2022 COVID-19 Supplemental Paid Sick Leave (SPSL). SPSL provided up to 80 hours of COVID-19 related paid leave from January 1, 2022 to December 31, 2022. Up to 40 of those hours could be used for isolation and quarantine, receiving vaccines and caring for a child whose school or place of care was closed. The additional 40 hours were available only when an employee, or family member for whom the employee provides care, tested positive for COVID-19.
