COVID-19 Preparedness and Response Plan: Updated for the 2020-2021 School Year
We are pleased to present our plans for the new school year. Currently, we are planning to start the school year in-person at school with special protocols and policies in place to keep our community of children, families, and staff safe. You can learn about the details of what school will look like in Phases 1 - 3 and Phases 4 - 5 on our COVID-19 webpage.
Please note the following recent updates to the Phases 4 - 5 plan on page 7 under the header “Personal Protective Equipment.”
- The Children’s House will not be accepting waivers in place of mask wearing.
- Phase 4: Nido and YCC staff are required to wear masks indoors.
- Children ages four and older are required to wear a mask indoors. Younger Primary children are encouraged to wear a mask if they can do so without needing additional help or increased face touching.
