UPDATE: North Colonie CSD’s COVID-19 Testing Site Open
The North Colonie Central School District is providing free diagnostic COVID testing for symptomatic students and staff. As we are heading into cold and flu season, it is likely that your child(ren) will present with one or more COVID-like symptoms in the future (i.e. cough, runny nose, etc.).
Through a partnership with Quadrant Biosciences, the District is using the Clarifi COVID-19 test , which is currently the most sensitive saliva test on the market.
The North Colonie CSD is excited to announce that we are in the process of setting up a COVID DIAGNOSTIC PCR testing site for symptomatic
students and staff.
No longer will you need to contact your pediatrician or look online for a testing site. All of your testing can be done right at North Colonie!
Please be proactive and register your child today!
