Due to the rise in cases, the district said it would increase the availability of testing, offering free tests to staff and students who have been exposed to someone who tested positive or who are showing symptoms.
Other precautions include recommended quarantines for classrooms that have community spread of the virus and required quarantines for anyone who shows symptoms of COVID-19.
All other Princeton ISD campuses will continue normal operations.
