Students will be kept in class cohorts for the entire day, to the extent possible.
Classroom space will be arranged to remove non-essential furniture, allowing maximum space for students and staff.
Student work and play areas will :
Be adjusted to allow maximum space for children and staff to move around the room.
Limit the number of students allowed at each table or play area.
Teachers will wear face shields during group times so that children can see and hear more clearly.
Students will wear masks when they are in doors and or outside and unable to have six feet space between each other.
Routes will be designated for entry and exit for pick up/drop off, recess, and other transition times, as feasible.
During the COVID -19 pandemic, it is our goal to limit the amount of crossing and interaction between all people on campus. Oak View Preschool has created a school site map that shows the flow while moving through campus. Directional movement has been limited to decrease potential spreading of the virus. Oak View Preschool will be appropriately labeled with directional signs to clearly mark routes. Staggered dismissals is one strategy that may be used to support directionality.
Students will follow directionality signs placed throughout the campus. Teachers and staff will train students on how to walk using social distancing guidelines. Teachers will observe students walking to ensure social distancing is adhered to.
If a walkway must be used for more than one direction, students and staff should wait to progress until the walkway is clear or there is six foot separation.
