COVID-19 Updates

For students

Students are no longer required to be vaccinated. The District strongly encourages everyone to fully vaccinate for their own protection and the protection of others. 

 

Masks are no longer required at Grossmont College but are strongly encouraged where social distancing is not possible.

 

If a student has been exposed to COVID-19, they should complete the following instructions:

  1. If the student is not presenting symptoms of COVID-19, they do not need to quarantine.

  2. The student should get tested for COVID-19 within 3-5 days of the last exposure. Testing materials can be found on Cuyamaca’s campus at the Cuyamaca Health and Wellness Center, Campus and Parking Safety, and the Administration building. Grossmont College offers at-home tests at the Campus Health Center, District Human Resources, the Office of the President, and Campus and Parking Safety. Additional testing sites can be found around the county.

  3. If a student has been in close contact with someone who tested positive for COVID-19, they should wear a well-fitting mask around others for 10 days and monitor their symptoms.

  4. If the student tests positive and develops symptoms, isolation should occur. Please contact the Grossmont College Health and Wellness Center at (619) 644-7192 or health@gcccd.edu or the Cuyamaca College Health and Wellness Center at (619)660-4200 or cuyamaca.wellness@gcccd.edu for further information and instructions.

 


For employees

Masked are no longer required in student support areas across campus, including classrooms, libraries, labs, and offices that serve students. 

 

If an employee presents symptoms of COVID-19, they are required to depart from campus immediately. If an employee tests positive for COVID-19, they must stay home for at least 5 days after the start of the symptoms or after the date of the first positive test if no symptoms are present. Employees can return to work after day 5 of isolation if symptoms are improving and a negative COVID-19 test is submitted to HR.  If you are unable to test or continue to test positive after day 5, you may return to work after day 10 as long as you are fever-free for 24 hours.
