Covid 19 Precautions
What to Expect at Miller Preschool
We are following district and school guidelines for safety during Covid 19.
Miller Preschool is taking the following precautions:
AM and PM classes held in different classrooms
All staff will wear masks inside the building, and when within 6 feet of students and staff outside
Students will wear masks when inside. If you child can't wear a mask for medical or behavioral reasons (including sensory defensiveness), your doctor can sign this form for your child. Link to form.
Both students and staff will be screened at the beginning of each day, checking for a temperature over 100.4, cough or shortness of breath/difficulty breathing. School nurses will support with action steps as needed if an individual experiences these symptoms.
Students will wash hands at least 6 times each day, which include the following: At drop off, before and after play centers, before and after playing on the playground, before and after snack and after using the restroom.
If we cannot access a sink for hand-washing, such as after eating snack outside, hand sanitizer will be applied. For students who can't access a sink, anti-bacterial hand/face wipes will be used to clean their hands.
Parents and guardians will drop off and pick up from exterior preschool doors. No parent or visitors are to enter the building. Parents will use a QR code system on their phone for sign-in/out.
Students will use their own materials for writing, reading, coloring, sensory play and most manipulates.
Students will engage with shared materials, such as blocks, during play centers, with 1-2 other students each day. The students will remain in these same small groups for the entire day.
Teachers will sanitize classroom materials and surfaces at the end of each school day, and as needed during the day.
Miller's general illness policy is here. This is not specific to COVID - if there is a question around COVID symptoms or protocols that will be discussed individually with our school nurse.
This list is not exhaustive. Feel free to ask your teachers for clarification.
