    • Diagnostic/viral (PCR) and antibody testing is covered at $0 cost share when it’s done for individual diagnostic purposes even when the individual being tested is asymptomatic or has no known exposure; administered by a licensed provider; or approved by the Food and Drug Administration.

Vaccination Status in Workday

As a reminder, if you received the COVID-19 vaccine, please take a moment to enter your vaccination information into Workday as soon as possible. Vaccinations are one of the most effective ways to avoid becoming ill with COVID. Your vaccination status in Workday will be kept confidential and only utilized should an exposure occur to help us determine which employees are exempt from isolation or potential quarantine. COVID vaccinations are NOT mandatory for DCSD staff, and your decision to receive, or not receive the vaccine will not impact your employment status with our school district.

A task has been sent to your Workday inbox that contains the steps to log your vaccination information or you can click HERE for the instructions if you are new to the District or do not see that task in your Workday inbox.

NOTICE OF DESTRUCTION OF SPECIAL EDUCATION RECORDS

Special Education records which have been collected by Douglas County School District related to the identification, evaluation, educational placement, or the provision of special education in the district, must be maintained under state and federal laws for the period of five (5) years after special education services have ended for the student. Special education services end when the student is no longer eligible for services, graduates, or completes his/her educational program at age 21, or moves from the district. This notification is to inform parents/guardians and former students of Douglas County School District's intent to destroy the special education records of students who exited special education services as of June 30, 2016. These records will be destroyed in accordance with state law unless the parent/guardian or eligible (adult) student notifies the school district otherwise. After five years, the records are no longer useful to the district, but may be useful to the parent/guardian or former student in applying for social security benefits, rehabilitation services, college entrance, etc. The parent/guardian or eligible (adult) student may request a copy of the records by requesting the records at this link ( Douglas County School District Transcripts and Records Requests ).
