Current Health/Safety Plans

Thank you for choosing Holy Family School and working with us with all the changes during the Covid-19.  Our plan for the 2021-22 school year is full-time in-person learning for all students.

Protocol

  • ​Morning Routine: All families are encouraged to use our drive-through carpool line.  Drop off and pick up is encouraged by car through the back gate and out the gate by the parish hall.  Morning drop off:   Cars will drive through the carpool lane, stop, and let students out to stand on blue dots.  Any student with symptoms of Covid-19 and/or fever, cough, should not attend school. The gates will be locked shortly after 8:25 am.​
  • Late Students: Late students are to be escorted by their parents to the glass doors on 17th street. 
  • Dismissal Routine: The car drive through will be similar to our current pick up procedures. Students will be spaced with proper distancing by the yellow curbs.  Cars are to drive in through the back gate, follow the carpool route and line up along the school building. Once the cars are stopped the students will enter the cars and exit when cars are loaded.  Please wait for the line to move, do not drive around parked cars.
  • Parents/Volunteers:  Cloth face coverings will be required for all individuals when children are present on campus, regardless of vaccination status.  Volunteers need to complete the Virtus Safe Environment training and present proof of vaccination in order to volunteer inside the school building.
  • ​Staff:  All staff will be required to wear masks when children are present.  All teachers, staff, administrators, coaches, and custodians must present proof of vaccine. 
  • Recess Plans:  Recess entrance and exits, play areas, will be spaced for safe distancing and in an assigned rotating zone area for play time.   
  • Lunch Plans: All students will eat in their classrooms.  If weather permits, classes may eat outdoors.
  • Cleaning Procedures: Classroom desks, door knobs, light switches will be cleaned throughout the day.  Desks will be cleaned whenever there is a change of students and after eating lunch. Bathrooms will be cleaned throughout the day.
  • ​Classroom Safety: Students and teachers will have 3ft distancing in classrooms.  Expectations and routines will be taught in the classrooms and for moving to and from school areas; such as changing classes, recess procedures and/or other routines. Windows and doors will remain open for ventilation.  Every classroom is equipped with an air purifier that will run all day, then be switched to ionization mode at night. 
  • Universal Face Covering: Cloth face coverings will be required for staff, students, and parents in grades PK-8.  Our Pre-K students will not wear wear masks for rest time, when they are 6ft+ distanced on nap mats.  Students will be supervised when wearing face coverings. Even with face coverings, proper social distancing will be maintained.  We will have more frequent outdoor breaks, where face coverings will not be mandatory as long as social distancing is maintained.
  • Please do your part to make our teachers, students, and parents safe by doing the following: Make sure that anyone coming to school, children and adults, have at least a few cloth masks that are comfortable and suitable. Practice wearing your masks for extended periods of time in order to become accustomed to wearing them. Ensure that everyone coming to school knows how to properly wash and sanitize their hands and practice doing it. Stay at home when you are sick – whatever your illness. Notify the school right away if you, someone in your home, or someone to whom you have been exposed is diagnosed with COVID-19.





Remote Learning: Remote learning will be provided for students not on campus due to quarantine or illness.  Learning will be asynchronous, except in the case of group or class quarantine.  Please see our Distance Learning Plan for details.  Distance Learning Plan
