Hello! This summer, many of us will travel within our great state, and out of state. While health guidelines and mandates do change, these may be helpful travel related resources for you:
State of Alaska Travel information and declaration forms: https://covid19.alaska.gov/travelers/
Current State of Alaska Health Mandates including two notes of interest:
- Health Mandate 010: Interstate and
International Travel
- note:
As of June 28, 2020, Alaskans
returning to the state from a trip five days or less are not required to
take a test before departing, and can upon return, take a COVID test at the
airport, and quarantine until receiving a negative result. Plus, “The resident
will receive a voucher for a second test that must occur within 7-14 days after
arrival, and should minimize interactions until the results from the second
test shows the resident is negative for COVID-19.” Alternately, if no test is
taken upon return, Alaskans must quarantine 14 days. Details about this option
are on the State Travel webpage, in the Travel Declaration Form options.

As our KPBSD SmartStart 2020 plans for reopening schools in August comes together, you will definitely receive more information later in July. Meanwhile, may your Fourth of July be safe and restful, while doing your part to keep community spread of COVID at bay, so we can open schools—and children and staff can be in buildings!
