“Consent information will be provided to families of Phase I & Phase II students in the coming days. PCR testing for students will shift to pooled testing once that is rolled out with the return of students in Phases III & IV,” said the district to families tonight.
“Testing of students in school will prove to be a much more reliable indicator than relying solely upon community health metrics. We encourage full participation,” said the Framingham Public Schools.
Staff were told they were expected back in their classrooms on February 1.
