Do any of you have a specific policy for requirements of a child’s return to daycare after the 14-day quarantine after exposure?

I have several kids currently quarantined due to being exposed to someone who tested positive for Covid at school.
I can find no guidelines from the CDC other than not allowing the child to daycare during quarantine. It seems to me, if there’s a risk of contracting the disease after exposure, and kids can especially be a-symptomatic, they should be tested at the end of their quarantine to make sure they are Covid-free before they return to school and daycare and possibly expose others.

I’m considering requiring a negative test result before they can return to daycare. Do any of you have a similar policy?
