CONWAY — SAU 9 is following the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s recommendation to shorten the time from 10 to five days that people who have COVID-19 but are asymptomatic need to isolate.
That protocol was put into place over the weekend. It comes at time when positive cases in local schools are at an all-time time.
