Covid Testing Covid Testing continues to take place on Tuesdays at Greene in Room N-1 from 8:30am - 3:30pm. If testing is needed during the week, the Covid Clinic is available at Cubberley Community Center on Mondays - Fridays from 10am - 6pm. (Located between the Auditorium and Theater, access from the South Entrance parking lot.) Covid Clinic has officially moved over their programming to not require an ordered test each week. New families will need to place one initial order. Once processed, for all future testing, family members will be able to walk up to the clinics without placing an order and get tested. Updates to the instructions will be on our website to reflect this new information soon.
