Abstract
This study will evaluate the effectiveness, feasibility, and acceptability of different contact tracing approaches in private middle and high schools in the Connecticut Association of Independent Schools (CAIS). The study will also assess the predictors of COVID-19 outbreaks in these schools using data collected from students and school staff. The study findings will help identify practices for schools to adapt to safely reopen during the COVID-19 pandemic.
