Other safety measures

These safety measures are in place to start the 2021-2022 school year:
  • Mandated vaccinations for faculty, staff, and outside instructors, substitutes, and vendors that work with students 
  • Physical distancing during instruction in classroom spaces, maximized based on available space
  • Lunch outdoors with strict physical distancing
  • Hand hygiene during the school day and during the after-school program
  • Rigorous campus cleaning routines
  • Effective classroom ventilation, including ongoing expert review based on updated guidance
  • Continued use of outdoor tents
  • There will be limited movement between and among student cohorts so we can return to our full multigrade programs and after-school programs.
  • An ELC cohort in 2021-2022 is defined as each class grouping: One cohort in Preschool, two cohorts in Pre-Kindergarten, and one mixed-age cohort.
  • A K-5 cohort in 2021-2022 is defined as a class (not a full grade), an after-school enrichment class, and the group in after-school care
Additional community best practices we encourage:
  • Consider playdates outdoors and limited to children from your own classroom.
  • Postpone larger gatherings because not all PBS students are not yet eligible for vaccinations.
  • Wear snug-fitting face coverings, wash hands, keep children home if they have symptoms, and use physical distancing to the extent possible, particularly when eating and drinking.
  • Align your plans with our Community Statement of Responsibility.
