COVID-19 Health and Safety Fall 2022

Our school will follow the guidelines for Covid mitigation as required by Public Health (see COVID-19 in Child Care or Early Learning Programs: Requirements and Recommendations) and North Seattle College (our parent organization), which include the following:​

• Enhanced ventilation in the classroom 
• Requirement that all adults in the classroom be vaccinated unless they qualify for limited exemptions
• We strongly encourage all children and parents/caregivers to get vaccinated.
• Mask use for students and parents/caregivers is optional, except in the following situations:
  • for 10 days after an exposure
  • if recovering from COVID-19, for 5 days after isolation with symptoms improved as well as no fever for 24 hours with no medication.
  • when the school has an outbreak (10% or 3 or more cases), for 10 days it is recommended that everyone in class wear tight fitting masks indoors for 10 days or until cases in the school are reduced.
• We will support children and families in their decision for mask wearing. Please don't hesitate to discuss any concerns with our teachers or board members. We want to help everyone feel as comfortable as possible.
