Kaskaskia College has implemented new campus procedures regarding Illinois Governor Pritzker’s executive order that mandates all higher education institutions require students and personnel to receive the COVID-19 vaccination or provide weekly proof of testing.
All Kaskaskia College students and personnel may now upload their vaccination cards or proof of testing (within the last seven days) in a private, secure manner via the KC Connect app or online: www.kaskaskia.edu. To upload proof of a vaccination card, all individuals must wait two weeks past their second dose of a two-series COVID-19 vaccination or two weeks past a single dose COVID-19 vaccination.
All students and personnel will be required to complete the daily COVID-19 screening form.
Anyone who does not receive the vaccine may provide weekly proof of testing. Kaskaskia College will have testing available at the main campus twice a week. However, there are multiple testing opportunities available throughout the entire KC district that staff and personnel may utilize for their testing needs. Any individual who gets COVID-19 testing should ask the testing provider for proof of testing.
Kaskaskia College continues to mitigate the spread of COVID-19 in a variety of ways, including:
- Utilization of the Pre-Screening Form
- Constant sanitation and disinfection of classrooms and in “high-touch” areas
- Installation of bipolar ionization air filtration systems that have greatly enhanced our air quality in all campus buildings
- Social distancing at a six-feet minimum in classrooms and high-traffic areas.
Kaskaskia College officials say they are committed to providing face-to-face offerings to our student body in a safe, secure, and healthy manner.
