School Based COVID Testing Program at EWA (OPTIONAL):
As you may know, East Wake Academy has been approved as a State COVID testing site for our students and staff. We have partnered with MAKO Medical the State vendor for our area.
The State has implemented a new “Test to Stay” policy. This allows us to test a student that has been in close contact with a positive case on campus. The follow is information from the NC Tool Kit (page 16) NC Tool Kit
Individuals in a mask-required school setting do NOT need to be excluded from school after a close contact, including unmasked exposures (e.g., during lunch or extracurricular activities), if they have no symptoms. Individuals with unmasked exposures in a mask required school setting should get tested on the day of notification of exposure and as close to day 5 after exposure as possible and must wear a mask in school settings. This exemption applies to in-school exposures as described above as well as non-household, out-of- school exposures. While the individual does not need to be excluded from the school setting, quarantine measures may still apply in non-school settings. If testing supply is limited, priority should be given to testing of students participating in athletics because of the higher risk of transmission in that setting.
The testing program is fully automated. Once we test the student and input the results, you will receive a message from MAKO through their COLOR system (text and email). To help us with this program, we are asking our families to complete the online registration to opt into the program.
How to access the MAKO system:
Click on the link below - This would be the same registration you would complete if driving up to their testing site.
You will answer basic screening questions that we have all answered at some point.
The next section asks you to agree to their testing protocols (There are two boxes you have to check - one at the top and one at the bottom of the page). Please review the testing protocols. This site describes two different parts of the testing program: POOLED Testing and Individual Testing. We are not doing the POOLED testing with students at this time. We are only doing the individual (diagnostic) testing with students (antigen testing).
The next section is basic demographic information. This is information on your child. The email address and phone (cell) will be where you will receive results.
Final page is a confirmation message.
This is very basic and should take no more than 5 minutes. You will have to do it for each child. This system will help streamline our testing.
We hope you never have to be tested.

IMPORTANT NOTICE: DECEMBER 16, 2021, 8:15 pm
East Wake Academy has been made aware of a National TikTok Challenge by Zebulon PD and The Safe School’s Division at NCDPI. Both agencies do not find this challenge to be a creditable threat against any school in our area. As in the past, we try to be transparent and provide our parents with information about safety at school. ZPD will have an officer on campus at all schools in Zebulon.
We have been asked to share the following Facebook post from ZPD:
The Zebulon Police Department has been made aware of a National Tik Tok challenge circulating the internet and social media regarding violence on Friday, December 17th. Although there are no credible threats to Zebulon schools - you will see officers at all Zebulon locations in the morning. Parents, we encourage you to talk to your children about the type of information they are posting and sharing on their social media accounts. These types of incidents create anxiety for the student and parents. We request that you have these crucial conversations and encourage them to refrain from posting or sharing posts that incite violence or create fear in others. Anytime this type of activity occurs, law enforcement is notified, and we work diligently to alert the public and ensure that the safety of all involved is our top priority.
