    Daily COVID-19 Screenings via HealthCheck:

    The safety of our staff and students is important to us, especially as we continue to navigate learning and teaching during a global pandemic. That’s why Atlanta Public Schools has partnered with Stratum Health Solutions to secure HealthCheck, an online tool that helps safeguard the health of students via daily wellness check-ins.

    Daily health screenings and temperature assessments have been the norm since in-person instruction resumed in 2021. The HealthCheck screener simplifies the process. 

    Starting March 22, parents of in-person learners are asked to respond to four daily health screening questions quickly and easily before their student reports to school.  Based on the responses, the tool will advise whether the child can attend school. (NOTE: Parents who have declared that their student would return to learn in-person for Quarter 3 should have received user account and activation emails from HealthCheck.)
