Fall 2020 Return to On-Campus Schooling Survey
Friday, May 15, 2020 at 10:12AM Dear Families,
As discussed at our online family meeting last Tuesday, preparations are being made for a return to on-campus schooling in August and operating our school in an environment that is significantly different than when we were together previously. This preparation is based on what we know today and is in full understanding that circumstances are likely to change, which will require flexibility along the way. At present, these preparations include:
• Daily health checks for all students and teachers with strict criteria for being at school.
• Facilitated social distancing on campus and where appropriate in classrooms.
• Segregating classrooms into discrete communities with exclusive teachers and not mixing between classes throughout the day.
• Modifying classroom spaces to facilitate distancing, hygiene, and sanitization.
• Staggered schedules for drop-off, pick-up, lunch, and recess to maintain distancing.
• Providing for appropriate protective gear (masks) worn by teachers and possibly students old enough to manage them.
• Enhanced emphasis on personal hygiene and classroom sanitization practices.
• Limit access to classrooms to teachers and school personnel only – no visitors or volunteers.
• Preparation for flexing in and out of on-campus and at-home learning as-needed for individual students, classrooms, and the entire school as conditions dictate.
Although lengthy, this list is not inclusive of everything discussed at our meeting but is intended to give you a sense of the measures we will be taking to keep our students and teachers as safe and healthy as possible when we return to campus.
Based on this information we would like to get a sense of how you're feeling about your child returning to school on campus in the fall. Please take a moment to let us know your thoughts and questions by filing out this survey.
Thank you for your participation. Your input is extremely helpful as we plan for what school will look like in the fall.
Yours in service,
Sucitra Wygmans
