Stay Safe Washington State
Washington State Community College continues to monitor and align COVID prevention efforts with local and state health information and guidance to safeguard the health of our students, staff, and faculty. Getting vaccinated remains the most effective way to battle the virus.
Washington State is no longer requiring that COVID cases be reported; individuals who test positive, are experiencing symptoms or are a close contact are encouraged to follow proper protocols for isolation, quarantine, and mask-wearing.
