2023-24 Information
The Board of Education, pursuant to Policy 5691 and applicable laws, rules and regulations, is committed to the health and safety of our students and staff. If a student or staff member is diagnosed with a communicable disease it is important to protect the health of both students and staff while minimizing the disruption of the education process.
Health and Safety Protocols
Routine cleaning in our school buildings and buses continues to be an important strategy for reducing the spread of illness. High-risk areas such as health offices, classrooms, lunchrooms, athletic rooms, bathrooms and high-traffic areas are cleaned and disinfected at a greater frequency. High-touch surfaces such as bus seats, lunch tables, desks, chairs, light switches and handrails are cleaned at a greater frequency.
The district shall use disinfectant equipment in large spaces on a routine basis. Hand washing and sanitizing is strongly recommended. Hand sanitizer will be readily available. Increased ventilation in designated areas is also a standard practice, lending to generally healthier environments within buildings.
Prevention and control of communicable diseases is a shared responsibility of schools, health care providers, parents, students, local and state health departments, and others in the community.
