COVID-19 School Safety Protocols

Pre-screening for COVID-19
Students and staff members should self-monitor for the following COVID-19 symptoms:

• Cough
• Shortness of breath
• Fever greater than 99.5F/37.5C
• Chills
• Repeated shaking with chills
• Muscle pain
• Headache
• Sore throat
• Loss of taste
• Nausea or vomiting
• Diarrhea

*If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, you should stay at home and not come to school.

COVID Response Plan

• Parents must notify Ms. Kitchen or Mr. Martinez immediately if they or their student tests positive for COVID-19.
• If a parent or student has been in contact with someone who has tested positive for COVID-19, the student must wear a mask around others. The CDC recommends getting tested on day six after exposure.

Hygiene
Hand sanitizing stations will be present in all classrooms and various high contact points throughout the campus, such as entrances, exits, restrooms, and designated dining areas.

Face Coverings
With the decrease in COVID cases, masks are now optional for all students and faculty.

Visitors and Outside Vendors
Visitors will be permitted on campus. Those visiting for a tour must present a negative COVID test and wear a mask.

Indoor Air Quality
Air purification systems will be in place in each classroom. These systems will provide maximum fresh air circulation to each classroom. These systems will reduce the flow of airborne pathogens, and the system will mitigate aerosolized pathogens and airborne particulate. When possible, windows and doors will be opened.
