But Ortiz said she had no idea testing would be done without her first being notified.
“I was really disappointed that I wasn’t told today that she was gonna get tested, Ortiz said. “I did sign the form. I did approve for them to do it, but I was never notified that she was going to get done today and without me being present.”
CVESD schools are using rapid antigen tests which give results in 15 minutes. The program is voluntary, and the district said it only tests students whose parents have consented.

(KGTV) â Three school districts in the South Bay are reopening their respective campuses for in-person instruction on Monday.
The Sweetwater Union High School District, Chula Vista Elementary School District, and San Ysidro School District will welcome students back with hybrid learning plans in place.
Sweetwaterâs interim superintendent said a little over 5,000 students will be back in classrooms for in-person learning.
The districtâs detailed reopening plan can be found at http://www.sweetwaterschools.org/reopening-schools-spring-2021/.
Chula Vista Elementary School District is expecting close to 60 percent of its students to return to schools as part of its hybrid model.
For many Chula Vista Elementary School District students, Monday had the “first day of school” vibes as they returned to their classrooms for the first time in over a year.
