Teach "O" Rea Preschool has always operated its child care centers with stringent health and hygiene, cleaning and disinfecting, and illness exclusion policies because regular health and hygiene practices provide some of the best defenses against the spread of contagious illnesses. In response to the increased challenges of COVID-19, we have implemented the following protocols at our centers:
Enhanced Operating Protocols:
-
Non-essential visitors are not permitted in the center
-
Posted health notice restricting entry
-
Drop-offs/pick-ups are restricted outside the center
-
Consistent groupings in separate classrooms
-
Regular Handwashing
-
CDC recommendations
Enhanced Health and Hygiene Protocols:
-
Daily temperature and health check conducted twice a day or more
-
Social distancing is practiced as much as possible
-
Teach "O" Rea Preschool Staff and Students will wear face masks/coverings
-
Frequent cleaning and disinfecting of high-touch surfaces, toys, and laundered items
-
