Daily At-Home Health Self-Inspection Before Arriving at School

Parents should monitor their child’s health regularly. If their child has a fever (forehead temperature greater or equal to 100ºF) and/or other COVID-19 symptoms they must not send the child to school. Parents should notify the appropriate division office to report the absence and symptoms so that school nurses can track symptoms of other individuals with whom the student may have come into contact. Parents will need to complete and submit an at-home health screening for each of their children each morning before arriving at school. The screening will check for fever, chills, cough, shortness of breath, difficulty breathing, fatigue, muscle or body aches, headache, new loss of taste or smell, sore throat, congestion or runny nose, nausea, vomiting and/or diarrhea, and for exposure to or history of COVID-19 infection or travel in past 14 days.

Staff and faculty must not go to school if they have fever and/or other COVID-19 symptoms. Employees who do have a fever and/or other COVID-19 symptoms should contact their department chair, division head (PS, K and LS) or administrative supervisor, as well as the Human Resources Manager immediately. All employees must also complete and submit an at-home health screening each morning before arriving at school. The screening will check for fever, chills, cough, shortness of breath, difficulty breathing, fatigue, muscle or body aches, headache, new loss of taste or smell, sore throat, congestion or runny nose, nausea, vomiting and/or diarrhea, and for exposure to or history of COVID-19 infection or travel in past 14 days.

Only students, faculty, staff and essential service providers will be allowed to enter buildings. Generally, parents, guardians, caregivers or other adults bringing children to school should plan to wait outside school buildings in line while social distancing from others.

Everyone–students, faculty and staff–will be required to wear a face mask throughout the day. The school will provide masks on an as-needed basis, but everyone is encouraged to bring their own mask.
