Test site details
Once on site, those being tested will need to wear a mask and stay in their cars.
For those ages 13 and older, the site will use a self-administered nasal swab test that will allow those being tested to swab their own nose on site while in their vehicles. Those being tested will drop the sealed sample into a container on their way out of the drive-thru site.
Parents will administer tests to their children ages 12 and younger.
While awaiting results, individuals who have been tested should follow CDC guidelines and take steps to help prevent the virus from spreading to people in their home and community.
It s no secret that teachers are a creative, hard-working bunch.
Take Leslie Boudreaux Tidwell in Lafayette, for example. When she isn t teaching at Episcopal School of Acadiana, she s writing short stories, acting in three improv groups or cooking.
On the opposite side of the state, Paul Adams teaches English to eighth-graders in Shreveport, while also making and selling unique, book-inspired soaps, and Monroe sixth-grade teacher Nick Harrison is a karaoke DJ, sports broadcaster and a little bit TikTok famous.
These Louisiana educators are channeling their creative energy into side hustles that have nothing to do with school to find balance and remind students to follow their passions.

Masks are more important than ever: CDC now says tight-fitting is better than loose, multiple layers are better and two masks are better. Avoid gatherings of individuals not part of your households, work from home remotely when possible, practice social distancing and good hand hygiene, and stay home if sick. If you have been exposed or have symptoms of COVID-19, get tested. And, when it is your turn, consider getting the COVID-19 vaccine.
