People do it up here in Washington, too. Once they find out you grew up here, and they grew up here, too, they'll ask you which hs you went to. I know where a number of my coworkers went to hs and college.

ETA: it seems like testing the whole school is a huge waste of resources and emotions. Why doesn't the health department just alert the people whom the infected person indicates might have been exposed? Isn't that required by law? If there are 50 people who may have been exposed, via a known method of infection, test those 50 people, or anyone that fits into the category the infected person indicates is the cause. Getting an HIV test is not like getting a flu shot, Hep B shots or routine blood draw, and as the article mentions, it sounds like all the kids are being labeled by ignorant, uneducated folk.
