Covid-19 Protocols

How Are We Keeping our Children and Teachers Safe?

Facility Preparation and Disinfection

We use disinfectant wipes, sanitizers, and cleaning supplies multiple times a day. We have also ordered personal protective face screens and surgical masks for children and all staff. We have increased water capacity to the school and formed washing stations inside and outdoors. 

Temperature Checks Upon Arrival

Each morning prior to arrival, parents are required to check the temperature of their child and their family members at home. 

In addition, parents need to check the temperature at the carpool line near the teacher – and report the temp daily to the staff.

Under 99.7 Fahrenheit or 37.4 Celsius is admitted. Otherwise, we will see families after 48 hours from the last symptom at home with a note from a pediatrician clearing the child’s re-admittance. Parents need to bring their own thermometer to school for their children.

Watching for Symptoms

If a family member of child shows symptoms they will be required to stay home. Any child with symptoms will be sent home for 48 hours and will need to be cleared by a pediatrician note to the school.

Mask Wearing

Children under 2 are not required to wear masks. Children 3 and older should bring masks with them. Children over 4 are required to wear them inside the classroom. They do not need to wear them when doing outdoor activities. In addition, we provide children with face screens. This means that a mask will be required for each student from when they arrive on campus until they get to their desk in their classroom. Inside the class, we ask that they put screens on.

Social Distancing

We have worked out various social distancing and preventive protocols at the school. Indoors, children are assigned to their own desks; they are required to wash their hands as soon as they are dropped off, and several times throughout the morning session and afternoon session. Washing hands is taught and practiced daily. Children learn to keep their distance apart (age appropriate) and learn about clean hands and face. Children have their own designated workspace.
