CABARRUS COUNTY, N.C. — The Cabarrus County School Board updated its COVID-19 protocol on Monday night for quarantining students, faculty and staff.
The district will not contact trace unless two cases come from a single classroom, bus or athletic team.
For example, that means if a student in a class gets COVID-19, the district will not let other parents or students know about the infection unless a second person in the same class gets it too.
The Cabarrus County School District has changed its quarantine policy. The school district is still requiring masks. But public health staff will now only complete contact tracing when there are 2 or more confirmed positive cases assumed to be linked in a school setting @wsoctv

Last month, the school board voted to make mask mandatory and will continue with that mandate.
