NCDHHS has selected 17 school districts and 11 charter schools to participate in a pilot program to deploy COVID-19 rapid testing in K through 12 public schools where any in-person instruction is happening. NCDHHS sent the selected districts and schools more than 50,000 federally funded rapid antigen tests. Students and staff will have access to more than 200 school-based testing locations across 17 counties as part of the pilot.
