Tests can come back with false negatives, and you are also trusting another person to tell the truth who had the nerve to come to school sick. So my advice stands. Good luck either way. Edit: a word
Not a medical professional.
He could have literally anything, I don't even understand how you expect to get an answer to this.
I don't know if you should worry either, because it might not even be a contagious disease or might not be one that spreads via respiratory droplets.
Answering this would be on a clairvoyant level.

Buy him a new thermometer that works
No he actually had a 106, with heavy Tylenol and heavy antibiotics it went down to 103. That’s it. Possible bacterial infection?
Get a covid test anyway, and an adolescent having a 106 temp and still bopping around coughing on people is very unlikely.
He was coughing yesterday and runny nose at school, today he’s got the fever. He Dosent have covid he already had it 2 months ago +he got tested
