Cleaning, Sanitizing, Disinfecting and EPE (Essential Protective Equipment) Procurement

The Marin County Office of Education (MCOE) under the guidance of Public Health and in conjunction with industry experts, has developed systems and tools to assist in the procurement and use of Essential Protective Equipment (EPE) required in the school setting, for both classrooms and offices, in the age of COVID-19. It is our hope that other LEAs can use these systems and tools as a framework in their offices, schools, and student programs. We invite and encourage all LEAs, schools, and student programs to share best practices and lessons learned, so that we can update and revise these plans to most effectively support our school communities efforts to expand opportunities for site-based classroom instruction for students.
