• Bus transportation will be conducted in accordance with the current protocol for transporting students to RSU 39 schools.  Students will be seated next to students coming to school from the same house, and will maintain safety protocol for the duration of the bus ride (i.e. mask wearing, maintaining distance).  

• Buses will arrive and release students at the main entrance, and the next bus will wait to pull up to the door to release students until all of the previous students have entered the building.

• The main entrance will function as the entry/exit point from the building for students arriving by bus.  Weather permitting, the entry/exit point will have the doors propped open during entry and exit, so as to facilitate contactless entry and exit to and from the building.

• Bus students will be required to wear a mask during bus transportation. Students should enter the bus with a mask properly covering their nose and mouth.  An RSU 39 employee will use an infrared thermometer to check all students and employees’ temperature before entering at designated entrance points at the school facility.  If a student does not have a mask, one will be provided to them. 

•  When bus students arrive at RSU 39 schools they will practice three feet of social distancing as they sanitize their hands before moving to their classroom.   If desired, students will receive their breakfast to bring to their classroom for consumption.

Caribou High School

• Students will be able to enter at either entry point, but must have a temperature check prior to proceeding to the cafeteria or Performing Arts Center.  

• Students may stop at their locker prior to going to the cafeteria or Performing Arts Center, but are not to gather with other students in the hallway, near lockers, or outside of homerooms.

CARIBOU COMMUNITY SCHOOL

• Parent drop off will occur near the main entrance of Caribou Community School (CCS).  A designated student drop off will be clearly marked and a CCS staff will be stationed here to escort students into the school.  Students arriving by car or walking must wear a mask properly covering their nose and mouth.  Parents are asked to stay in their car during student drop off as many parents are planning on driving their child to school.

• Students will be escorted to a designated entrance where their temperature will be taken and their hands will be sanitized before moving to their classroom.  If desired, students will receive their breakfast to bring to their classroom for consumption.

• Staff will also have temperatures taken and wearing masks upon arrival at Caribou Community School.
