Letter About School Health Guidelines

Dear Parents,

 
We are forwarding to you the most important guidelines about the health and safety policies of our school.

  1. Vaccination:
We highly encourage families and extended family members, that have frequent contact with students, to get vaccinated as soon as they can.

  1. Masking:
- Students must cover their faces with a mask while indoors such as classroom, library, cafeteria,
- Students not wearing masks indoors for health reasons must provide proof of testing with negative result twice a week, in order to follow this procedure, special authorization must be obtained from the school administration,
- Masks are optional outdoors for all students. Students can remove their masks during outdoor activities in the playground and during eating snack and lunch,
- Employees and parents regardless of vaccination status must cover their faces indoors at all times.
 
3. Student screening at home:
- Prior to bringing your child to school, please check him/her for the following Covid-19 symptoms. If any of the symptoms exist, please keep your child at home.

- Students will be checked for fever three times daily: a) during homeroom time; b) after the morning recess; and c) after the lunch break,
- If the student shows any Covid-19 symptom and/or has a temperature reading above 100, then he/she will be sent to the office and the temperature will be taken again. If the high temperature persists, and/or any of the Covid-19 symptoms is confirmed to be present, the student will be placed in a designated isolation room and parents will be asked to take the student home immediately,

  • The test should be taken on the 3rd day of the quarantine period.
5. Cohorts:
  1. Los Angeles Department of Public Health does not mandate creation of cohorts, but recommends it,
  2. In our school, each grade level will be considered a cohort,
  3. To allow for the necessary distancing in a cohort, student desks will be placed 3 feet apart,
  4. Members of each cohort (grade level) will play and eat together, independent of the other grade levels,
  5. Students will have their individually assigned and labeled desk/seat,
  6. Lunch will be served outdoors. On hot or rainy days lunch will be served inside the classroom. Lunch and snacks must be brought from home; when the school returns to normal operation, lunch will be served by the school kitchen.
 
6. Tracing and testing for students:
  1. If a student’s test result is positive for Covid-19, the parents must notify the school immediately. The administration will prepare a list of the close contacts of the ill student from the same cohort and will inform the parents, teachers and staff of the possible exposure of these students,
  2. These students can return to school only after 10 days or if the test (on the 3rd day) is negative, and the members of the ill student’s family will be advised to be quarantined,
  3. If a member of the student’s household tests positive for COVID‐19, the parents must immediately inform the school, and the student should be quarantined at home; the student can return to school only after 10 days or if the test (on the 3rd day) is negative,
  4. If a student has participated in a group activity such as family gatherings, birthdays, etc., where another participant has been diagnosed positively, parents must notify the school and keep the student at home; the student can return to school only after 10 days or if the test (on the 3rd day) is negative,
  5. If the administration is informed anonymously about a student being a participant of a group gathering where a positive Covid-19 case was identified, then the school administration will make an inquiry with the organizers of the gathering and take precautionary measures accordingly,  
  6. First, second and third positive cases within a cohort will be reported to the Los Angeles Public Health Department. The third case will result in an investigation by the Public Health Department,
  7. During the quarantine period the students can follow instruction remotely through zoom connection.
