External testing resources

There are many Bay Area organizations offering testing to the community. If you are not using on-campus testing, your first stop should be your regular healthcare provider, as they will know your family’s needs best and would already have your insurance information on file. If testing is not available through your regular provider, here are some other resources where you can find testing, many at no cost depending on your insurance provider:

[*] In the event of a positive test result: Contact Olana Khan or Scott Erickson by phone and email; notify the school by email to health@phillipsbrooks.org immediately
