Dear staff,
As we move forward in welcoming our students back into the classrooms, the Central Consolidated School District is required to have 25% of employees randomly selected for surveillance tests each week.
Testing of school employees is to be provided using tests from the Vault home test kit (link you received) or Oral/Nasal Swab at McGee Park or a test at one of the Department of Health, Health Public Offices. COVID-19 testing is also available by Curative at McGee Park in Farmington, 7 days a week, from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Please note, the San Juan County Public Health Office will no longer be offering COVID-19 testing. These tests must be completed as soon as possible and results returned to HR and to the Principal at each school. This is required by NMPED to start At-School Instruction.
If you have any questions or concerns, please contact the Human Resource Department, Marlena Harvey at [email protected] or call (505) 419-9212. You can also email [email protected] or call (505) 598-1018 for the receptionist.
Some important items to know:
- If chosen, surveillance testing cannot be declined by an employee. It is a condition of employment.
- People that have tested COVID positive in the past 90 days are not eligible for the vault testing.
- You can still report to work while awaiting the results, as long as you are not symptomatic.
- If you are willing to volunteer, please email Marlena Harvey at [email protected] and you will be sent a link to register.
- Once you receive the kit you must complete the process as soon as possible.
- If you do not have a laptop or camera available contact Marlena Harvey.
