COVID-19 Protocols {2020-2021 School Year}
*Disclaimer: These protocols are from the 2020-2021 school year.
Final decisions regarding safety procedures and protocols for next school year will be made by public health.
Student PPE
Students in Kindergarten are highly encouraged to wear masks while at school. It is recommended that students bring with them 2-3 masks each day, so they can change part way through the day.
Educator PPE
Educators wear masks at all times (both inside and outside the building). While inside the building, face shields or goggles are also worn for PPE.
Here are examples of educators wearing their PPE.
Cohorts & Zones
Inside the classroom students are assigned to a 'cohort' where they are grouped with a few of their classmates. They will spend a week in that 'cohort' interacting with the same group of students in the same area or 'zone' of the classroom. 'Zones' are designated areas in the classroom where the 'cohort' of students have their specific workspace as well as room to play. Some classrooms have used colored tape to help students know where each 'zone' is located, as well as the pathway to walk safely around the room. Please find pictures below of 'zones' within a classroom, as well as examples of students playing in their 'cohorts'.
