How one local private school has remained open for in-person learning Students are closely monitored via daily temperature checks, COVID tests every three weeks and contact tracing through an app. Author: Shannon Handy (Reporter) Updated: 7:38 PM PST March 10, 2021 SAN DIEGO — La Jolla Country Day School has been open full-time since September 2020. But how? "Everything we've done is to take care of the well-being of our staff, our faculty, and our students," Gary Krahn, Head of School at La Jolla Country Day, said. La Jolla Country Day is a pre-K through high school campus with 1,100 students. Since indoor classes reopened full-time, Krahn says less than 1% of students have tested positive for COVID-19. Those cases are believed to have been transmitted off-site, and no outbreaks have been reported at the school.
