Preschool COVID-19 Mitigation

Resources:

CDC Quarantine If You Might Be Sick

Stay home if you might have been exposed to COVID

COVID-19 Response Preschool Procedures:

Mission Statement: Franklin Phonetic School will provide a safe, clean, child center with the highest of standards both in care and compliance with recommendations of National and State Health Organizations.

Overall Cleanliness of Campus: The preschool area has been thoroughly cleaned and sterilized. Every shelf, table, chair, surface and floor has been sanitized. In addition the entire school campus has been treated by professionals with a mist system specifically developed to kill any and all potential bacteria.

Continued Daily Cleaning:  Every day all frequently used surfaces will be cleaned and sanitized. Center will adhere to all federal, state and specific Covid-19 recommendations and standards recommended by the CDC, First Things First, Quality First and DES. 

Procedures for hand washing: All persons who arrive on campus are encouraged to use hand sanitizer provided at front office and preschool entrances as recommended by the CDC. Every staff member and student who enters will have temperature screening. Staff will wash their hands with soap and water for at least 20 seconds upon entering a building. Thoroughly drying hands is an important part of washing as it further wipes germs off of the skin. Hand washing will be taught and positively reinforced through demonstration, fun science activities and friendly reminders. Hand washing will continue throughout the day as appropriate.

Signing in: Before arrival, parents will perform a self-check for symptoms of illness. Upon arrival, parents will take their child’s temperature upon entry and sign-in at the preschool. The CDC defines the following specific symptoms as requiring at home care: Fever or chills, Cough, Shortness of breath or difficulty breathing, Fatigue, Muscle or body aches, Headache, New loss of taste or smell, Sore throat, Congestion or runny nose, Nausea or vomiting, Diarrhea.

Procedures for dividing sick and non-sick persons:   Student and staff temperatures will be checked upon arrival according to current CDC guidelines. If a student has a fever BELOW 100.4, they will be carefully attended to and monitored hourly. If a student has a fever ABOVE 100.4, they will need to be picked up; parents will be advised of their child’s temperature, and will be asked to bring their child home. If a parent is unable to bring their child home immediately, then they will be treated with kindness in order to provide them a safe, comfortable and interesting day that is separated from other students so as not to potentially cause other students to become sick. 

Procedures Following a COVID like illness report of any person on campus: If any person on campus becomes ill with symptoms consistent with the COVID 19 virus, they will be immediately separated from other persons on campus. All appropriate persons will be notified as soon as possible. It will be kindly requested that sick children are brought home as soon as possible. Parents must report a positive COVID-19 to the designated personnel at Franklin School. Students should stay home if any family members have symptoms of COVID-19 or have been tested positive for COVID-19. Guidance for returning to school will be given by the principal. 

Updated Health Mitigation Procedues 09/29/20

An individual can return to the child care facility when they can answer YES to ALL three questions:

Has it been at least 10 days since the person first had  symptoms? 

Has it been at least 24 hours since the person had a fever (without using fever reducing medicine)? 

Have other symptoms improved? 

If an individual has had a negative COVID-19 test, they can return to the child care facility once there is no fever without the use of fever-reducing medicines for at least 24 hours and other symptoms have improved. Please check the ADHS website for the latest updates. 

If a person has been diagnosed with COVID-19 but does not have symptoms, they should remain out of child care until 10 days have passed since the date of their first positive COVID-19 diagnostic test, assuming they have not subsequently developed symptoms since their positive test.

Most children and staff members can return to care/work based on improved symptoms and the passage of time. A doctor’s note should not be required.
