Previous reports of coronavirus disease 2019 among children in the United States have been based on health jurisdiction reporting. We performed severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) testing on children enrolled in active, prospective, multicenter surveillance during January–March 2020. Among 3187 children, only 4 (0.1%) SARS-CoV-2–positive cases were identified March 20–31 despite evidence of rising community circulation.
