Teachers and aides will continue to teach and reinforce healthy hygiene practices to prevent the spread of COVID-19. They will give frequent reminders about covering coughs and sneezes and the importance of handwashing. Children and staff will wash their hands with soap and water for at least 20 seconds upon arrival at school, after outside play, after using the bathroom and prior to leaving for home.
Windows will be open and ceiling fans will be on to allow for fresh air flow. Frequently touched surfaces such as door handles, toys, tables, chairs, light switches, bathrooms, and playground equipment will be cleaned, sanitized, and disinfected on a regular schedule throughout the day.
A needlepoint bipolar ionization system has been installed on our HVAC system to purify the air by eliminating airborne particulates and pathogens.
