COVID-19 Safety Protocols + Dashboard
Seminole ISD is committed to protecting the health and safety of students, faculty, staff, and visitors. The District COVID Committee, Nursing Staff, and Campus/District Administration are monitoring any outbreaks of COVID-19 on campus or school premises. Seminole ISD will continue to work with local and state health officials on this effort.
The Seminole ISD COVID-19 Dashboard provides an up-to-date overview of the current test-confirmed positive COVID-19 cases across the District. This general information is presented for parent, staff, and community notification purposes.
This dashboard is updated each school day by 1 p.m. Cases that occur over the weekend or during a holiday will be updated on the next school day.
Students Who Test Positive
- 1. Seminole ISD will follow TDH rule that states a school administrator shall exclude from attendance any child having or suspected of having C-19. Students should stay out until all of the following conditions are met:
- If symptomatic, exclude until at least 10 days have passed since symptom onset, fever free, and other symptoms have improved. Children who test positive for COVID-19 but do not have any symptoms must stay home until at least 10 days after the day they were tested.
- Fever free for 24 hours without the use of fever suppressing medications. Fever is a temperature of 100° Fahrenheit (37.8° Celsius) or higher.
- Comply with Doctor's orders.
3. Seminole ISD will notify the local health department.
Students Who Are Close Contact
- 1. The CDC notes that individuals who are vaccinated are not considered close contacts.
2. If a parent is aware the student has had close contact with someone that is positive, it is their choice to determine if they want to quarantine them. The District will encourage: testing, monitoring of symptoms and wearing a mask. Again, we ask that everyone respect the health of others in regards to keeping your child at home.
3. For those choosing to quarantine, the CDC recommended stay-at-home period can end for students experiencing no symptoms on Day 10 after close contact exposure, if no subsequent C-19 testing is performed.
Staff Member Who Tests Positive
- 1. Follow Texas Department of Health Rule

Staff Members Who Are Close Contact
This includes living with someone that has tested positive.
- 1. If not vaccinated, the District strongly recommends the employee get tested. Furthermore, the employee should closely monitor symptoms. Depending on the degree of close contact, the employee should consider appropriate precautions such as quarantining, wearing a mask or social distancing. The employee has the option to return to work, but should consider the health of others.
2. If vaccinated, the CDC notes that individuals are not considered close contacts. The employee should monitor symptoms or consider other appropriate precautions such as wearing a mask or social distancing. The employee has the option to return to work.
3. For those choosing to quarantine, the CDC recommended stay-at-home period can end for staff experiencing no symptoms on Day 10 after close contact exposure, if no subsequent C-19 testing is performed.
