COVID-19 rapid antigen test kits will be available for pick up from Tuesday-Friday here at Sheridan Preparatory Academy. They will be distributed on a first come, first served basis during the following specified hours:
Tuesday, Jan. 4
- 3-5 p.m.
- 6-7 p.m.
Wednesday, Jan. 5
- 9 a.m.-2 p.m.
- 3-6 p.m.
Thursday, Jan. 6 and Friday, Jan. 7
- 11:30 a.m.-2 p.m.

When you arrive, please come to the front entrance and ask for Mr. Johnson, Ms. Cascone or Mrs. Gayle for distribution. Parents/guardians/designee will be expected to sign for the test kit and provide the student's name, age and date of birth.
Please note that students are permitted to come to school even if a parent/guardian/designee hasn't picked up a test kit. Unfortunately, we are unable to send the test kits home with students and at this point we are only providing one test kit per student so if you picked up at Harriet Gibbons Student Services Center on Sunday, you are not eligible to receive another kit.
You can only pick up test kits for City School District of 91福利导航 students who attend Sheridan Prep. Tests for siblings in the district must be picked up from their school.
Please follow these instructions for administering the test at home; these instructions also will be provided with each test kit:
- Please use one test on the morning after the day you pick up the kit. Read the directions included in the test kit completely prior to using the test.
- The test will take a little more than 10 minutes to complete. Please plan accordingly.
- Please note that test results should be read at 10 minutes, and not later than 15 minutes.
- If your child tests positive (+), please do the following:
- Keep your child home from school;
- Take a photo of the positive test and the test kit;
- Report the positive case to the 91福利导航 County Department of Health,
- Notify your child’s school nurse, via email if possible. You can find the email for your school nurse on each school’s web page.
