In addition to the CHEC health policy items that would require alerting Christie of any potential illness within the family during the week, all participants are asked to notify her if the answer is yes to any of these questions for any family member during the week:
Have you been exposed (unmasked/undistanced >15 min) to Covid in last two weeks?
Have you had new headache?
New and persistent cough or new shortness of breath?
Unexplained fatigue?
Fever?
Body/Muscle aches?
New loss of smell or taste?
A participant with known Covid exposure will not be allowed to attend co-op for 14 days. The family may still attend provided the exposed individual remains symptom free and no other family members develop symptoms.
When a known or suspected Covid case is in a participant’s household, the 14 day countdown for family reentry won’t start until the infected person is cleared to resume normal activities, usually 10 days from onset of symptoms.
All co-op participants will be required to have a temperature screening and affirm their response of “no” to the Covid questionnaire (listed above) each Friday before entering the building.
Hand sanitizer will be available and used upon entry to the building and each separate classroom.
Classroom doors will remain opened.
Students working in groups at co-op during Plan B will need to use hand sanitizer if any common items are shared.
All Plan B participants will be expected to wear a mask on site at all times. A mask should cover the nose and mouth, and be secured under the chin; should fit snugly against the sides of face and be made of material that allows for easy breathing at all times. Gaiters, masks with valves, and face shields do not meet CHEC’s mask requirements.
A teacher choosing to hold class outside may allow students to unmask if he/she feels comfortable supporting the students maintenance of healthy social distancing parameters.
At the end of each class period, the departing lead teacher is asked to clean or oversee the cleaning of tables/chairs using the materials CHEC will provide.
Any item returned to the supply room should be placed in the return tub, rather than put away.
Science kits should be brought to and from co-op weekly by the student. Students should pay special attention to what room their science class will be meeting in and leave their kits neatly in the hallway or next to a wall of the classroom upon arrival.
CHEC teachers receiving papers from students may place folders or trays for collection in the foyer.
The mailboxes will have weekly designated distributors at the mom’s table that will return a family’s papers directly to the parent or student at the end of the third period and again at the end of the day.
After building cleaning, board members will finalize the cleaning/disinfecting of each classroom.
