To continue supporting school and district leaders and their COVID-19 testing programs, The Rockefeller Foundation along with the White House, the U.S. Department of Education, and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention launched a virtual weekly learning network in early November.

The network is facilitated by nationally recognized school health leader, Diana Bruce, with support from other school leaders who have deep experience doing school-based testing. 

With three weeks left in the series, next week’s sessions will focus on Test to Stay and Close Contact Testing.

This learning network is a forum to ask questions, hear directly from other school leaders who have done this work, and engage some of our nation’s top experts on technical issues. There are two sessions held each week to discuss the same topic Tuesdays from 5–6 PM ET and Wednesdays from 4–5 PM ET. All are welcome to attend any and all sessions, and days can be mixed and matched.
