Let's go! Tri-County Health and the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment need more time to finalize and communicate their protocols for schools, which include testing, contact tracing, quarantine, and temporary shifts to distance learning when outbreaks occur.
The district needs more time to complete the hiring and training process for teachers selected to teach in the online program to best meet the needs of families, once the district knows how many students will choose the online program. The district, school leaders and teachers need more time to prepare all the classrooms and school spaces for physical distancing, which includes removing furniture, posting signage, and disinfecting, all according to the most recent guidance of local health officials.
Teachers and school leaders need more time to prepare to shift in and out of "a more robust distance learning model should schools need to do so," the district said. Parents need additional time to consider their options for student learning at school or online. Parents will receive information early next week about the Temporary Online Program for Students - the LPS online program, the district said.
The superintendent also issued the following guidelines: Masks and Health Screenings. All staff and all students in grades kindergarten through 12th grade including Transition Services will be required to wear masks with breaks throughout the day.
At this time, students are expected to provide their own masks. If a mask is left at home, one will be provided. Health officials say that mask-wearing protects teachers and other adults in the building as much as it protects the students. Preschool students will not be required to wear masks at this time, but they will be learning how to wear them at school in a developmentally appropriate way. More details will be provided to preschool families soon.
Additional information will be communicated to families whose students may need special accommodations regarding mask wearing. All students and staff will have a daily health screening.
This will be differentiated by level and will include self-screening and screening by school staff. Physical Distancing Physical distancing guidelines within a school setting are different than those out in the community. Currently, the American Academy of Pediatrics recommends students maintain 3 to 6 feet of distance or to the degree possible while in the classroom, if students and staff members are wearing masks and are symptom free.
The Learning Environment Classroom furniture will be arranged to maintain recommended 3 to 6 feet physical distancing as much as possible. Student movement around the school throughout the day will be planned and organized to maintain physical distancing and minimize transitions as much as possible, with fewer students in hallways, restrooms, cafeterias, food serving lines, and on playgrounds at the same time.
All school front entries and classrooms will have sanitation stations that students and staff will use when they arrive at school, before lunch, before recess, and as needed throughout the day. Hand sanitizer will be available in every classroom and in every space in every school.
Dispensers will be checked nightly and refilled. All areas inside schools, as well as playgrounds, will be cleaned and sanitized following the protocols of local health officials as frequently as possible.
Drinking fountains will not be used. Students are expected to bring their own water bottle to school. Every school will have at least one bottle filling station most have several. Times to refill water bottles at these stations will be scheduled into the day to maintain physical distancing. Signage on walls and stickers on floors will help students maintain physical distancing. Ventilation systems have been serviced and will be frequently checked to make sure indoor spaces are properly ventilated.
In an effort to limit exposure, and as a general rule, parents and visitors will not be allowed in schools during the school day at this time. Field trips, travel, and large gatherings such as assemblies will not be scheduled at this time.
Transportation Current guidance from health officials limits ridership to maintain appropriate physical distancing. More details will be provided soon. Buses will be cleaned after each route before a new group of students is transported in accordance with the guidance from health officials. Students will need to practice physical distancing at bus stops.
