COVID Holiday Screening Information

The holidays bring opportunities to connect and celebrate special traditions and meaningful moments with the people in our lives.  As you prepare for the upcoming holiday season, make plans to help keep your family, friends, and community safe during this special season.  

In cooperation with the Illinois Department of Public Health, Triad CUSD#2 is hosting a SHIELD IL Holiday COVID-19 Screening event on Tuesday, December 21st from 3pm to 6:30pm and the following week on Thursday, December 30th from 3pm to 6:30pm.   Instead of a nasal swab, the covidSHIELD test uses saliva and only takes a few minutes to collect a sample. The results are known within 24-48 hours and are made available through an online portal to each patient.  To learn about the saliva-based SHIELD IL Test, click here.  

IDPH recommends testing before attending functions with loved ones especially if you have been exposed to someone with COVID-19 or work in a high-risk setting.  To begin, scan the QR code on THIS FLYER or visit https://shieldilportal.pointnclick.com/login_login.aspx and use the agency code "df5brbrj" when creating your portal account.
