Consent Form to Participate in Random COVID-19 Testing

Please note that students in blended learning must submit a consent form to participate in random testing for COVID-19. The test is quick, easy, and painless, and it helps protect our school and broader communities--learn more  on our website.

You can submit your consent for testing one of two ways:

  • Through your New York City Schools Account (NYCSA) under ‘Manage Account’, or
  • By completing and signing the consent form available here.
