聖地牙哥已經在14日連續三天都達成州觀察名單的標準，目前正等待加州公衛部門審核數據，即可撤下。根據規定，要從州觀察名單上移除後14天，該縣的K-6年級的小學才有可能恢復面對面傳統授課。然而，截至這個周末已經有60多所公私立學校向縣衛生和公服部門提出豁免，意思是只要先通過的話，就不用等縣從州觀察名單上撤下，直接開始返校上課啦！！
私立學校為主、兩間公立小學學區也申請豁免
加州公衛官員於8月3日首次發布了針對公立、私立和特許學校K-6的指導原則，如果這些學校位於38個州觀察名單的縣當中的話，可以透過在地衛生官員的許可尋求豁免，就可以盡速恢復上課。豁免僅適用於幼兒園至六年級的學生，因為此年齡學生感染或傳播冠狀病毒的可能性較小。
該州的指南部分規定，尋求豁免的學校必須獲得教師、家長和社區組織的支持。重新開放計劃必須涵蓋完整的reopen計畫，從清潔、消毒到學生的健康檢查、社交疏遠以及戴口罩等等。
聖地牙哥共有23個小學學區，目前有 Del Mar United School District 和 Rancho Santa Fe School District 申請豁免。
