Kids Connection 2020-2021 Reopening Plan

,

The Kids Connection 2020-2021 School Reopening Plan is based on the Four Pillars for a safe return to school, a framework essential in creating and sustaining the most healthy environment for students and staff to prevent the spread of communicable diseases:

  • Health and Hygiene – practicing daily hygiene routines, conducting daily health screenings, including temperature taking, providing essential protective equipment (EPE), and conducting effective cleaning routines. 
  • Face Coverings – based on extensive research, face coverings are essential to stem the spread of COVID-19 and are required for everyone on campus from kindergarten students to staff, except those, who for medical reasons, cannot wear one. KC will provide information and guidelines on face coverings.
  • Physical Distancing – is another critical element to limiting the spread of contagious disease, including COVID-19. KC will employ strategies for limiting the number of people in any space, which may include alternative schedules for students, rearranging classrooms, using outdoor spaces for classrooms, and limiting use of common areas on campus.
  • Limiting Gatherings – addresses the need to limit meetings and group events that occur outside of the instructional setting. Teachers and students convening for learning is an essential activity and does not constitute a gathering. Activities outside of the instructional setting should be conducted remotely, postponed, or otherwise restructured.

This plan is built to be flexible so that we can adapt to the ever-changing guidance and recommendations from the health authorities.  As always, our top priority is the safety of our students and families.
