VIA: Richard Gusick, Superintendent of Schools and Chris Groppe, Pandemic Coordinator

Action Under Consideration: In order to promote the safe and orderly operation of the School District’s educational program during the COVID-19 pandemic, it is recommended that the Board of School Directors approve the attached Reopening Plan. It is recommended that the Board of School Directors authorizes the Superintendent or his designee to take any other actions the Superintendent deems appropriate, without further Board approval, to ensure the safety of participating students to the extent authorized by law and irrespective of any policies that may be to the contrary, including minor revisions to the Health and Safety Plan or Continuity of Education Plan. The action will also approve updated Health and Safety Plans for In-Person Staff and Student meetings and Athletic Activities. The Board of School Directors also approves the TESD Emergency Instructional Time Plan Pursuant to Section 520.1 of the Public School Code, as attached, and authorizes the Superintendent or designee to submit such plan to the Pennsylvania Department of Education for approval in the form and manner prescribed by the Pennsylvania Department of Education. Upon approval of the Emergency Instructional Time Plan by the Pennsylvania Department of Education, such Emergency Instructional Time Plan shall become part of the District’s Health and Safety Plan. To the extent that the procedures outlined in the Emergency Instructional Time Plan, in its current form or as amended in the future, conflict with any applicable Board Policy or Administrative Regulation, the approval by the Board of the Emergency Instructional Time Plan and any amendment(s) thereto shall also be considered approval of an exception to the Policy or Administrative Regulation in conflict for the limited purpose of carrying out the provisions of the Emergency Instructional Time Plan. Any action taken by the Superintendent or his designee in accordance with this authorization shall be deemed to be the action of this Board. Such action shall be confirmed by the Board no later than at its next regular Board meeting.

Why Split by Last Name?• Sample in-school rotation for PA Green Phase:

• Purpose of in-school rotation is to limit the number of students in the school and each class to allow for social distancing and limit the number of people that students and teachers interact with in a single day

• Without knowing how many families will choose Option 1 and Option 2, the A-K and L-Z bands provide the most even split of our student population to reduce the number of students in the school and each classroom

• Other methods, such as splitting by grade level or neighborhood, may reduce the number of students in the building but not reduce the number of students in each classroom

Rationale

• Permits time for teachers to utilize a range of instructional strategies, including

high tech and low-tech strategies, allowing for screen time breaks for students

participating virtually

• Provides longer blocks of time for teachers to support all students, both those in

the classroom and those participating virtually

• Reduces the number of transitions and times of high traffic in hallways

• Reduces the number of surfaces, including desks, that students come in contact

with throughout the day

• Reduces the number of people that students and teachers interact with on a

TESD - Continuity of Education Plan for Reopening 2020-21 Introduction On March 12, 2020, the governor of Pennsylvania ordered all school buildings closed. During the closure, TESD implemented a Distance Learning program aligned with the guidelines and requirements for this unprecedented emergency closure. These guidelines required schools to focus on those skills and content that were essential in preparation for the next grade level during the remaining 12 weeks of school. In June of 2020, the District provided a Distance Learning Survey to parents, secondary students and teachers as a means to gather feedback related to the distance learning experience. Concurrently, on June 3, 2020, the Pennsylvania Department of Education (PDE) issued its preliminary guidance for the phased reopening of K-12 schools. PDE indicated additional guidance would be forthcoming throughout the summer as conditions continued to evolve and that school reopenings should address “safe operations, teaching and learning, and student wellness – with attention to equity throughout.” In addition to developing the plans for reopening, on June 18, districts were given the following charge from PDE.

Develop a Health and Safety Plan which will serve as the local guidelines for all instructional and non-instructional school reopening activities. All school activities must be informed by Governor Wolf’s Process to Reopen Pennsylvania.

Districts were also directed to identify a Pandemic Team who would assist with the development of the Health and Safety plan for the upcoming year. Further guidance identified distinct phases for school building reopening.

Using the guidance from PDE, as well as guidance issued from Chester Health Department, the Pennsylvania Department of Health and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, District administrators and teacher representatives began collaborating to develop the gradual reopening plan. Throughout June and July, work continued as guidance continued to evolve and change on a regular basis. Principles and Guidance In developing the plans for reopening, TESD was guided by three principles.

• Safety and Feasibility • Flexibility • Equity

Page 62: REVISED 7/29/2020 Superintendent’s Report July 29, 2020 ......Superintendent’s Report July 29, 2020 Page 2 V. Consent Agenda Although Board action is required, it is generally

These principles can form the foundation of a plan where the TESD academic experience continues to be one that provides opportunities for each student to thrive – whether in school buildings or within a virtual setting. While adhering to guidelines for health and safety concerns, consideration was also given to maintaining a strong sense of community and ensuring access and equity for all students. Alongside these guiding principles for plan development, the District utilized research and resources provided by the Pennsylvania Department of Education and a myriad of health authorities, including the PA Department of Health, the Chester County Health Department, the American Academy of Pediatrics, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and the World Health Organization. Overview of TESD Plans The chart below provides an overview of the overarching components of the District’s plans for reopening in the Red, Green and Yellow phases.

These plans address both remote and in-person instruction and allow for family choice when schools are in the Yellow and Green phases. The integrated model of broadcasting live instruction from the classroom to students who are attending remotely from home allows for flexibility should students need to quarantine or wish to change their mode of participation as health and safety conditions evolve. To provide for smooth transitions between phases as necessary, in each of the phases – Red, Yellow or Green - all students at a given level will follow similar schedules regardless of the phase. Red Phase Description In the Red Phase, all school buildings will be closed, and students will participate in school virtually. The program will include a blend of live instruction, with some asynchronous instructional activities. The TESD curriculum will be implemented, with both graded assignments and assessments.

Page 63: REVISED 7/29/2020 Superintendent’s Report July 29, 2020 ......Superintendent’s Report July 29, 2020 Page 2 V. Consent Agenda Although Board action is required, it is generally

Elementary School For elementary students, during the Red Phase, math and language arts will be delivered through daily live instruction. Other subjects will occur asynchronously. Additionally, teachers will regularly schedule live class meetings that include topics of social emotional well-being, resiliency, connectedness, developmental guidance, bullying prevention and digital citizenship. Support services, such as Reading Support, Math Support, English Language Development, and all related services, for students who require them, will be provided. A variety of benchmark assessments will be administered virtually, as well as ongoing classroom-based assessments. Opportunities will be available for students to check in with core teachers for additional support or clarification as needed. Middle School Instruction for middle school students will be primarily live in Reading, English, Math Science, Social Studies, World Languages, and Health. Instruction will occur asynchronously in Art, Music, PE, Tech Ed and FCS. The middle school will run on a block schedule, with 4 longer periods each day instead of the traditional 8 periods. Teachers will regularly schedule live class meetings that include topics of social emotional well-being, resiliency, connectedness, developmental guidance, bullying prevention and digital citizenship. Support services, such as Reading Support, English Language Development, and all related services, for students who require them, will be provided. Additional advisory support opportunities will be available within the schedule. Students will be expected to submit assignments for grades. However, quarterless grading will be implemented, where students receive a final grade for each course, but no separate marking period grades will be given. High School At the high school level, the instruction will be primarily live for the majority of the subjects, with exceptions for some elective courses. The high school will run on a block schedule, with 4 longer periods each day instead of the traditional 8 periods. Teachers will design instruction with an emphasis on topics telated to community building. Support services, such as Reading Support, English Language Development, and all related services, for students who require them, will be provided. Students will be expected to submit assignments for grades. However, quarterless grading will be implemented where students receive a final grade for each course, but no separate marking period grades will be given. Additionally, there will be no midterms or final exams. Yellow/Green Phases Description During the Yellow and Green Phases, families will be offered two options. Option 1 Option 1 is an Integrated Instructional Model that combines live, in-person instruction in school buildings with live, broadcasted classroom instruction to the student’s home.

• PA Green Phase: Students attend 2x/week • PA Yellow Phase: Students attend 1x/week

Page 64: REVISED 7/29/2020 Superintendent’s Report July 29, 2020 ......Superintendent’s Report July 29, 2020 Page 2 V. Consent Agenda Although Board action is required, it is generally

In-school capacity and in-school rotation will be contingent on current color phase, health and safety guidance, and the number of families who opt to participate in in-person instruction. A sample in-school rotation for the Green Phase is outlined below.

Option 2 Students may choose to remain all virtual. Students will engage in live, broadcasted instruction from the classroom while in their own home, with some asynchronous activities. Integrated Instructional Model The Integrated Instructional Model is designed to provide flexibility for movement between in-person and virtual learning, while maintaining the integrity of the TESD instructional program. The instruction provided in school will be live streamed via Microsoft Teams and a web cam in the classroom for students attending virtually. The District has technology infrastructure in place to support TESD’s robust academic program through the Integrated Instructional Model. For example, TESD has expanded its 1:1 program to include all grades K-12, with iPads for elementary students and laptops for students in grades 5-12. District network capacity has been evaluated by experts to ensure it has the capability to support increased daily traffic. Faculty and staff are participating in professional development workshops that will prepare them for the Integrated Instructional Model – that is to achieve a shared set of skills in order to design and implement instruction so students’ learning can continue seamlessly – whether students are in the classroom or attending virtually. Yellow/Green Phases: Family Option 1 Families who choose Option 1, where students will be participating in the in-school rotation model, can expect to see some of the following changes to student groupings, interactions and classroom environments. Physical Space

• Masks/face coverings will be required for all students and staff • Students will be seated six feet apart facing the same direction to the maximum extent

feasible • Some classroom furniture will be removed to maximize social distancing • Plexiglass may be installed in some areas of the school as an added precaution

Classroom Instruction and Groupings

• Students will engage in more individual work • The use of shared materials will be avoided or severely limited

• Students may engage virtually in group work with peers who are attending in person or virtually

• Movement around the classroom will be limited to maximize social distancing • Teachers will be working with students in-person and virtually at the same time • At the elementary level, whenever possible, special areas classes will be taught in the

students’ core classrooms • Whenever possible, outdoor spaces will be maximized for classes • The implementation of block scheduling at the middle and high schools provides longer

instructional periods to vary teaching methods and provide opportunities for individual practice

Yellow/Green Phases: Family Option 2 All families will have the opportunity to choose Option 2, where students attend school virtually through live, broadcasted classroom instruction, with some asynchronous instructional experiences. Through the Integrated Instructional Model, students in Option 2 will receive the TESD curriculum and will be able to participate virtually in classroom activities and assignments with their classmates. Elementary School Elementary students in Option 2 will have daily virtual access to live broadcasted instruction in both Language Arts and Math. In addition, they will be able to participate in regularly scheduled live class meetings. Instruction in other academic subjects and special area classes will primarily be delivered asynchronously. Just as if they were attending school in-person, students will be expected to complete class assignments and will receive feedback and grades for these assignments. A variety of benchmark assessments will be administered virtually, as well as ongoing classroom-based assessments. Students who require support services will receive those services virtually as well. Middle School Students attending middle school using Option 2 will receive daily live broadcasted instruction in all core subjects, Health, and World Languages. They will be able to participate in regularly scheduled live class meetings. Special areas subjects will primarily be delivered asynchronously. Students will be expected to complete class assignments and will receive feedback and grades for these assignments. Students will participate in assessments virtually. Students who require support services will receive those services virtually as well. High School High school students choosing Option 2 will receive daily live broadcasted instruction in all academic subjects and select elective courses. Other elective courses will be a blend of both synchronous and asynchronous instruction. Students will be expected to complete class assignments and will receive feedback and grades for these assignments. Students will

Students Participating In-Person in Yellow/Green Phases • Extended time between classes to limit congestion in hallways. • Free period students will report to either the cafeteria, library or work with a teacher.

Mental Health and Social/Emotional Support The psychological health and resilience of our students is very important. In order to address social emotional learning and to foster a sense of connectedness, class meetings/classroom instructional activities will be planned to enhance social emotional learning. School Counselors and Mental Health Specialists will meet with students on an individual or group basis to support our students’ emotional and mental health needs in Red, Yellow, or Green phases regardless of virtual or in-person status. Additionally, regularly scheduled school counseling, mental health and health room services will continue in all phases. The developmental school counseling program will also be delivered, including academic, social, emotional, and career development. Visitors and Volunteers The involvement of our District visitors and volunteers truly enrich our school environment. We look forward to the day when we can welcome visitors and volunteer back into our schools. In order to meet the pandemic guidelines, visitors will be limited to those that are deemed essential. In accordance with guidance from the Chester County Health Department (CCHD) and the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), only visitors providing essential duties (e.g. contractors, delivery staff, etc.) should enter the buildings. Essential parent visits to schools are by appointment only and are limited at this time. All visitors must follow CDC and CCHD symptom screening guidelines. We plan to hold parent meetings, including IEP, GIEP, and 504 meetings, virtually using audio and video. Gradual Reopening To begin the 2020-21 school year, all students will start on August 31 with virtual instruction using the Red Phase model. All students will continue to attend school virtually until at least September 21. The second milestone of the reopening will be a transition to Yellow/Green Phase in-person options through an introduction of small groups of students into the schools on a

rotating basis for approximately one week. A focus will be on building transition activities for grades K, 5 and 9. After this period of transition, the Yellow/Green Phase, utilizing the Integrated Instruction Model, will be implemented fully. The start date for each step of the reopening will be based on current pandemic conditions and state guidance. Prior to the end of the all-student virtual instruction period, families will make the choice of transitioning to in-person instruction after September 21 or remaining in the virtual instruction option. Using a model of gradual reopening provides both educational and health and safety benefits. The phasing of reopening allows time for both staff and students to develop the skills and strategies necessary to be successful in an Integrated Instructional Model. Additionally, the gradual reopening provides a period of time to elapse after potential summer travel could impact student and staff health.

Tredyffrin/Easttown School District Phased School Reopening

Health and Safety Plan 2020-2021

Each school entity must create a Health and Safety Plan which will serve as the local guidelines for all instructional and non- instructional school reopening activities. As with all emergency plans, the Health and Safety Plan developed for each school entity should be tailored to the unique needs of each school and should be created in consultation with local health agencies. Given the dynamic nature of the pandemic, each plan should incorporate enough flexibility to adapt to changing conditions. The templates provided in this toolkit can be used to document a school entity’s Health and Safety Plan, with a focus on professional learning and communications, to ensure all stakeholders are fully informed and prepared for a local phased reopening of school facilities. A school entity’s Health and Safety Plan must be approved by its governing body and posted on the school entity’s publicly available website prior to the reopening of school. School entities should also consider whether the adoption of a new policy or the modification of an existing policy is necessary to effectively implement the Health and Safety Plan.

Each school entity should continue to monitor its Health and Safety Plan throughout the year and update as needed. All revisions should be reviewed and approved by the governing body prior to posting on the school entity’s public website.

Health and Safety Plan: Tredyffrin/Easttown School District

All decision-makers should be mindful that as long as there are cases of COVID-19 in the community, there are no strategies that can completely eliminate transmission risk within a school population. The goal is to keep transmission as low as possible to safely continue school activities. All school activities must be informed by Governor Wolf’s Process to Reopen Pennsylvania. The administration has categorized reopening into three broad phases: red, yellow, or green. These designations signal how counties and/or regions may begin easing some restrictions on school, work, congregate settings, and social interactions:

• The Red Phase: Schools remain closed for in-person instruction and all instruction must be provided via remote learning, whether using digital or non-digital platforms. Provisions for student services such as school meal programs should continue. Large gatherings are prohibited.

• The Yellow Phase and Green Phase: Schools may provide in-person instruction after developing a written Health and Safety Plan, to be approved by the local governing body (e.g. board of directors/trustees) and posted on the school entity’s publicly available website.

Based on your county’s current designation (i.e., red, yellow, green) and the best interests of your local community, indicate which type of reopening your LEA has selected by checking the appropriate box in row three of the table below. Use the remainder of the template to document your LEA’s plan to bring back students and staff, how you will communicate the type of reopening with stakeholders in your community, and the process for continued monitoring of local health data to assess implications for school operations and potential adjustments throughout the school year.

Depending upon the public health conditions in any county within the Commonwealth, there could be additional actions, orders, or guidance provided by the Pennsylvania Department of Education (PDE) and/or the Pennsylvania Department of Health (DOH) designating the county as being in the red, yellow, or green phase. Some counties may not experience a straight path from a red designation, to a yellow, and then a green designation. Instead, cycling back and forth between less restrictive to more restrictive designations may occur as public health indicators improve or worsen. This means that your school entity should account for changing conditions in your local Health and Safety Plan to ensure fluid transition from more to less restrictive conditions in each of the phase requirements as needed.

Type of Reopening

Key Questions

• How do you plan to bring students and staff back to physical school buildings, particularly if you still need social distancing in place?

• How did you engage stakeholders in the type of re-opening your school entity selected? • How will you communicate your plan to your local community? • Once you reopen, what will the decision-making process look like to prompt a school closure or other significant modification

to operations?

The Tredyffrin/Easttown School District proposes to start instruction on August 31, 2020 with virtual instruction that is a blend of synchronous, live instruction and asynchronous instruction. Families will have a choice to transition their child to in-person instruction when it resumes or stay with virtual instruction. The earliest that in-person instruction may occur is September 21, 2020. Students attending in-person will participate in an integrated instructional model that is a blend of in-person (i.e. 2 days/week) and remote instruction (i.e. 3 days/week). The number of students in the building, and the number of days each student is in the building will be determined based on current Pennsylvania color phase, guidance on social distancing, gathering size limitations, and number of families that opt to participate in in-person instruction. Secondary students will be scheduled on a block schedule to reduce the number of transitions in hallways and reduce the number of people that students and teachers interact with on a single day.

The District engaged stakeholders in multiple ways. A Distance Learning Survey was administered to parents, secondary students, and teachers to gather feedback. A dedicated email account was created to obtain additional feedback and ideas. Teacher representatives and District administrators collaborated throughout the summer to plan for re-opening. District administrators met with TESD parent representatives to gather input on re-opening. Meetings were held with teachers by level to discuss reopening, receive feedback, and answer questions. Throughout this process, the Pandemic Team monitored guidance from federal, state, and local authorities.

The draft reopening plan was posted on a dedicated page of the district website on July 24, 2020. The District will conduct a special Meeting to Present the Reopening Plans on Monday, July 27, 2020. The reopening page will have a feedback form that community members may use to submit comments or questions. On July 29, 2020 the School Board will hold a special meeting to take action on the proposed reopening plans.

The District will monitor federal, state and local authorities in determining school closure or significant modification to operations.

Pandemic Coordinator/Team

Each school entity is required to identify a pandemic coordinator and/or pandemic team with defined roles and responsibilities for health and safety preparedness and response planning during the phased reopening of schools. The pandemic coordinator and team will be responsible for facilitating the local planning process, monitoring implementation of your local Health and Safety Plan, and continued monitoring of local health data to assess implications for school operations and potential adjustments to the Health and Safety Plan throughout the school year. To ensure a comprehensive plan that reflects the considerations and needs of every stakeholder in the local education community, LEAs are encouraged to establish a pandemic team to support the pandemic coordinator. Inclusion of a diverse group of stakeholders is critical to the success of planning and implementation. LEAs are highly encouraged to make extra effort to engage representatives from every stakeholder group (i.e., administrators, teachers, support staff, students, families, community health official or other partners), with a special focus on ensuring that the voices of underrepresented and historically marginalized stakeholder groups are prioritized. In the table below, identify the individual who will serve as the pandemic coordinator and the stakeholder group they represent in the row marked “Pandemic Coordinator”. For each additional pandemic team member, enter the individual’s name, stakeholder group they represent, and the specific role they will play in planning and implementation of your local Health and Safety Plan by entering one of the following under “Pandemic Team Roles and Responsibilities”:

• Health and Safety Plan Development: Individual will play a role in drafting the enclosed Health and Safety Plan • Pandemic Crisis Response Team: Individual will play a role in within-year decision making regarding response efforts in the

event of a confirmed positive case or exposure among staff and students; or • Both (Plan Development and Response Team): Individual will play a role in drafting the plan and within-year decision

making regarding response efforts in the event of confirmed positive case.

Key Strategies, Policies, and Procedures

Once your LEA has determined the type of reopening that is best for your local community and established a pandemic coordinator and/or pandemic team, use the action plan templates on the following pages to create a thorough plan for each of the requirements outlined in the Pennsylvania Department of Education’s Preliminary Guidance for Phased Reopening of PreK-12 Schools.

For each domain of the Health and Safety Plan, draft a detailed summary describing the key strategies, policies, and procedures your LEA will employ to satisfy the requirements of the domain. The domain summary will serve as the public-facing description of the efforts your LEA will take to ensure health and safety of every stakeholder in your local education community. Thus, the summary should be focused on the key information that staff, students, and families will require to clearly understand your local plan for the phased reopening of schools. You can use the key questions to guide your domain summary.

For each requirement within each domain, document the following:

• Action Steps under Yellow Phase: Identify the discrete action steps required to prepare for and implement the requirement under the guidelines outlined for counties in yellow. List the discrete action steps for each requirement in sequential order.

• Action Steps under Green Phase: Identify the specific adjustments the LEA or school will make to the requirement during the time period the county is designated as green. If implementation of the requirement will be the same regardless of county designation, then type “same as Yellow” in this cell.

• Lead Individual and Position: List the person(s) responsible for ensuring the action steps are fully planned and the school system is prepared for effective implementation.

• Materials, Resources, and/or Supports Needed: List any materials, resources, or support required to implement the requirement.

• Professional Development (PD) Required: In order to implement this requirement effectively, will staff, students, families, or other stakeholders require professional development?

In the following tables, an asterisk (*) denotes a mandatory element of the plan. All other requirements are highly encouraged to the extent possible.

Cleaning, Sanitizing, Disinfecting, and Ventilation

Key Questions

• How will you ensure the building is cleaned and ready to safely welcome staff and students? • How will you procure adequate disinfection supplies meeting OSHA and CDC requirements for COVID-19? • How often will you implement cleaning, sanitation, disinfecting, and ventilation protocols/procedures to maintain staff and

student safety? • What protocols will you put in place to clean and disinfect throughout an individual school day? • Which stakeholders will be trained on cleaning, sanitizing, disinfecting, and ventilation protocols? When and how will the

training be provided? How will preparedness to implement as a result of the training be measured?

Summary of Responses to Key Questions:

• All District buildings will be cleaned and ready to safely welcome staff and students. District custodial staff are implementing cleaning protocols consistent with the CDC requirements, including the use of disinfectants registered by the EPA as effective against Covid-19.

• Supplies for disinfecting the buildings will be procured through the purchasing office. Bus contractors will disinfect the buses. Only supplies that meet the requirements of the CDC, OSHA, and EPA will be procured.

• Cleaning of frequently touched surfaces and spaces will occur at least daily/throughout the school day. Restrooms will be cleaned several times per day. In addition, supplies of cleaners and paper towels will be in numerous locations in each building for staff to use.

• District HVAC systems are designed to meet the ASHRAE mechanical code standards and the IMC code requirements. In general, ASHRAE recommends a system that maximizes bringing outside air to a space, while keeping the windows closed.

• Custodial staff have been trained on all cleaning procedures and there will be ongoing reminders on proper protocols.

Summary of Responses to Key Questions:

Overview of the District’s educational plan:

• The District aims to both provide rigorous, high quality instruction through a flexible structure to maximize adherence to public health demands, in an equitable manner.

• The District will open on August 31, 2020, with full virtual instruction for at least the first three weeks of school. There will be a combination of synchronous and asynchronous instruction. In addition, parents will be given the option to transition to in-person instruction after September 21, 2020, or continue with all virtual instruction.

• In both Yellow and Green, families may choose to have their child access virtual instruction for all classes, or go to school for in-person instruction.

• In-school capacity and in-school rotation to be determined based on current color phase, guidance on social distancing, gathering size limitations, and number of families that opt to participate in in-person instruction.

Additional information specific to the Key Questions:

Classrooms and learning spaces will be arranged to allow for 6 feet of social distance in all instructional settings. The use of communal spaces will be limited. Secondary level students will not use lockers, and upon arrival should report directly to their first class. Students will primarily eat lunch in classrooms. Steps will be taken to ensure the health and safety of students with food allergies. Outdoor spaces will be utilized for gym and other class as able due to weather and curriculum. As schools reopen, the District will provide training opportunities for students and families regarding hygiene, masking, social distancing, and symptom screenings. Throughout the day there will be social distanced handwashing breaks for students. In particular, in accordance with PDE guidance students will wash hands as they arrive at schools and prior to and after lunch. In order to accommodate social distancing on buses, as per PDE and health department guidance no more than two students will be seated together. All bus seats will be assigned and whenever possible household members will be seated together. Buses will be disinfected between each bus run. Visitors will be limited to those that are deemed essential as per state and county health and safety guidelines. Any essential visitors to District buildings will be asked to acknowledge that they are free of COVID-19 symptoms prior to entering a District building. Virtual trainings regarding COVID-19 guidelines (symptom screening, hygiene, social distancing, and masking) will be completed with parents, students, and District staff.

Tredyffrin/Easttown School District In Person Staff and Student Meetings

Health and Safety Plan The decision to resume individual in-person activities, including counselor meetings, placement testing and psychological testing, is within the discretion of a school entity’s governing body. Tredyffrin/Easttown School District developed this In-Person Staff and Student Meetings Health and Safety Plan aligning to the PDE Preliminary Guidance for Phased Reopening of Pre-K to 12 Schools prior to conducting any face to face meetings with students that may need to occur during the summer.

The Tredyffrin/Easttown School District shall continue to monitor its Health and Safety Plan throughout the year and update as needed. All revisions should be reviewed and approved by the governing body prior to posting on the school entity’s public website.

In Person Meeting - Health and Safety Plan: T/E School District

All decision-makers should be mindful that if there are cases of COVID-19 in the community, there are no strategies that completely eliminate transmission risk within a school population. The goal is to keep transmission as low as possible to safely continue school activities. All school activities must be informed by Governor Wolf’s Process to Reopen Pennsylvania. The administration has categorized reopening into three broad phases: red, yellow, or green. These designations signal how counties and/or regions may begin easing some restrictions on school, work, congregate settings, and social interactions:

• Red Phase: Schools remain closed for in-person instruction and no sports are allowed in counties designated as being in the Red Phase.

• Yellow Phase and Green Phase: Schools may resume after developing an in person written In Person Meeting Health and Safety Plan, to be approved by the local governing body (e.g. board of directors/trustees) and posted on the school entity’s publicly available website.

Use this template to document your LEA’s plan to bring back Staff and Students, how you will communicate the type with stakeholders in your community, and the process for continued monitoring of local health data to assess implications for school sports-related activity operations and potential adjustments throughout the school year.

Your school entity should account for changing conditions in your local In Person Meeting Health and Safety Plan to ensure seamless transition from more to less restrictive conditions in each of the phase requirements as needed. Depending upon the public health conditions in any county within the Commonwealth, there could be additional actions, orders, or guidance provided by the Pennsylvania Department of Education (PDE) and/or the Pennsylvania Department of Health (DOH) designating the county as being in the red, yellow, or green phase. Some counties may not experience a straight path from a red designation, to a yellow, and then a green designation. Instead, cycling back and forth between less restrictive to more restrictive designations may occur as public health indicators improve or worsen.

Resuming: In Person Meetings and Activities

Key Questions

• How do you plan to bring students and staff back to physical school buildings, particularly if social distancing is still required? • How will you communicate your plan to your families? • Once you resume In Person Meetings, what will the decision-making process look like to prompt a school closure or other

significant modification to these activities?

Summary of Responses to Key Questions:

This plan provides details regarding how the Tredyffrin/Easttown School District shall bring students to our buildings for any in person meetings that may need to occur.

• During the summer, students may need to enter buildings to interact with staff, only at the invitation of staff. These meetings may only occur if the District is in Green or Yellow phase, and if the meeting cannot take place through other tools such as Microsoft Teams. If we are in the Red phase, face to face meetings with students are not permitted. Any interaction that is anticipated to last more than 10 minutes in duration falls under the jurisdiction of this plan. This plan is designed to facilitate that process.

• Examples of in person meetings include but are not limited to: students being evaluated for special education services, students and family meetings with school counselors, and curriculum based diagnostic assessments for purposes of course placement.

• The plan will be communicated through an email blast to all families and posted on the District website. In addition, when families are contacted to bring their student to school, the family will be informed of the plan.

• Any modifications to these activities will be in response to evolving guidance from all applicable federal, state, and local authorities, including the Pennsylvania Department of Education, the Pennsylvania Department of Health, and Chester County Health Department.

Anticipated launch date for in person meeting and activities: June 30, 2020

Primary Point of Contact

Each school entity must designate a primary point of contact with defined roles and responsibilities for health and safety preparedness and response planning for in person meetings. The point of contact will be responsible for responding to all questions related to COVID-19. All parents, students, and staff must be provided the person’s contact information.

Key Strategies, Policies, and Procedures

For each domain of the In-Person Staff and Students Meetings- Health and Safety Plan, draft a detailed summary describing the key strategies, policies, and procedures your LEA will employ to satisfy the requirements of the domain. The domain summary will serve as the public-facing description of the efforts your LEA will take to reduce the health and safety risks to every stakeholder in your local education community. Thus, the summary should be focused on the key information that staff, students, and families will require to clearly understand your local plan for the phased reopening of schools. Use the key questions to guide your domain summaries.

For each requirement within each domain, document the following:

• Action Steps under Yellow and Green Phase: Identify the discrete action steps required to prepare for and implement the requirement under the guidelines outlined for counties in yellow or green. List the discrete action steps for each requirement in sequential order.

• Lead Individual(s) and Position(s): List each person responsible for ensuring the action steps are fully planned and the system is prepared for effective implementation.

• Materials, Resources, and/or Supports Needed: List any materials, resources, or supports required to implement the requirement.

Timely and effective family and caregiver communication about in person meeting health and safety protocols and schedules will be critical. Schools should be particularly mindful that frequent communications are accessible in non-English languages and to all caregivers (this is particularly important for children residing with grandparents or other kin or foster caregivers). Additionally, school entities should establish and maintain ongoing communication with local and state authorities to determine current mitigation levels in your community.

Tredyffrin/Easttown School District PK-12 Athletics:

Off-Season Activities & Pre-Season Health and Safety Plan

The decision to resume sports-related activities, including conditioning, practices and games, is within the discretion of a school entity’s governing body. Each school entity must develop and adopt an Athletics Health and Safety Plan aligning to the PDE Preliminary Guidance for Phased Reopening of Pre-K to 12 Schools prior to conducting sports-related activities with students. The plan must include the provisions of this guidance, be approved by the local governing body of the school entity and be posted on the school entity’s publicly available website. School entities should also consider whether the implementation of the plan requires the adoption of a new policy or revision of an existing policy.

Each school entity should continue to monitor its Athletics Health and Safety Plan throughout the year and update as needed. All revisions should be reviewed and approved by the governing body prior to posting on the school entity’s public website.

Athletics Health and Safety Plan: Tredyffrin/Easttown School District

All decision-makers should be mindful that as long as there are cases of COVID-19 in the community, there are no strategies that completely eliminate transmission risk within a school population. The goal is to keep transmission as low as possible to safely continue school activities. All school activities must be informed by Governor Wolf’s Process to Reopen Pennsylvania. The administration has categorized reopening into three broad phases: red, yellow, or green. These designations signal how counties and/or regions may begin easing some restrictions on school, work, congregate settings, and social interactions:

• Red Phase: Schools remain closed for in-person instruction and no sports are allowed in counties designated as being in the Red Phase.

• Yellow Phase and Green Phase: Schools may resume sports-related activities after developing a written Athletics Health and Safety Plan, to be approved by the local governing body (e.g. board of directors/trustees) and posted on the school entity’s publicly available website.

Use this template to document your LEA’s plan to bring back student athletes and coaching staff, how you will communicate the type with stakeholders in your community, and the process for continued monitoring of local health data to assess implications for school sports-related activity operations and potential adjustments throughout the school year.

Your school entity should account for changing conditions in your local Athletics Health and Safety Plan to ensure seamless transition from more to less restrictive conditions in each of the phase requirements as needed. Depending upon the public health conditions in any county within the Commonwealth, there could be additional actions, orders, or guidance provided by the Pennsylvania Department of Education (PDE) and/or the Pennsylvania Department of Health (DOH) designating the county as being in the red, yellow, or green phase. Some counties may not experience a straight path from a red designation, to a yellow, and then a green designation. Instead, cycling back and forth between less restrictive to more restrictive designations may occur as public health indicators improve or worsen.

Resuming PK-12 Sports-Related Activities

Key Questions

• How do you plan to bring student athletes and staff back to physical school buildings, particularly if social distancing is still required?

• How did you engage stakeholders in the decision to resume sports-related activities, including try-outs, conditioning, practices, and games?

• How will you communicate your plan to your local sports and school communities? • Once you resume sports-related activities, what will the decision-making process look like to prompt a school closure or other

significant modification to sports activities?

Summary of Responses to Key Questions:

• This plan is for off-season voluntary conditioning for sports, and only if we are in the Yellow or Green phase. It has been extended to include August pre-season practice and heat acclimation. It does not include tryouts or scrimmages.

• The plan will be shared during a public meeting, and then posted on the District website. Information will be shared with participants and their families via District approved communication methods including email.

• Any modifications to these activities will be in response to evolving guidance from all applicable federal, state, and local authorities, including the Pennsylvania Department of Education, the Pennsylvania Department of Health, and Chester County Health Department.

• The current plan will be extended through August 24, 2020.

Anticipated launch date for sports related activities: July 1, 2020

Primary Point of Contact

Each school entity must designate a primary point of contact with defined roles and responsibilities for health and safety preparedness and response planning for sports-related activities. The point of contact will be responsible for responding to all questions related to COVID-19. All parents, student athletes, officials, and coaches must be provided the person’s contact information.

Key Strategies, Policies, and Procedures

Use the action plan templates on the following pages to create a thorough plan for each of the requirements outlined in the Pennsylvania Guidance for All Sports Permitted to Operate During the COVID-19 Disaster Emergency.

For each domain of the Athletics Health and Safety Plan, draft a detailed summary describing the key strategies, policies, and procedures your LEA will employ to satisfy the requirements of the domain. The domain summary will serve as the public-facing description of the efforts your LEA will take to ensure health and safety of every stakeholder in your local education community. Thus, the summary should be focused on the key information that staff, students, and families will require to clearly understand your local plan for the phased reopening of schools. Use the key questions to guide your domain summaries.

For each requirement within each domain, document the following:

• Action Steps under Yellow and Green Phase: Identify the discrete action steps required to prepare for and implement the requirement under the guidelines outlined for counties in yellow or green. List the discrete action steps for each requirement in sequential order.

• Lead Individual(s) and Position(s): List each person responsible for ensuring the action steps are fully planned and the system is prepared for effective implementation.

• Materials, Resources, and/or Supports Needed: List any materials, resources, or supports required to implement the requirement.

• Professional Development (PD) Required: Identify the training or professional development that will be provided to staff, students, families, and other stakeholders to implement each requirement effectively.

In the following tables, an asterisk (*) denotes a mandatory element of the plan. All other requirements are highly encouraged to the extent possible.

Cleaning, Sanitizing, Disinfecting, and Ventilation

Key Questions

• How will you ensure the athletic facilities are cleaned and ready to safely welcome coaching staff and student athletes? • How often will you implement cleaning, sanitation, disinfecting, and ventilation protocols/procedures to maintain coaching staff

and student athlete safety? • What protocols will you put in place to clean and disinfect throughout the day? • Which stakeholders will be trained on cleaning, sanitizing, disinfecting, and ventilation protocols? When and how will the

training be provided? How will preparedness to implement as a result of the training be measured?

Summary of Responses to Key Questions:

• Athletes are participating in voluntary off-season conditioning outdoors. • No indoor facilities will be used. Participants will be able to use indoor restrooms, and the restrooms will be cleaned on a

regular basis in accordance with CDC protocols. • Other cleaning protocols will be in place for use on equipment and materials involved in the activities. • Athletes will be transported to the practice space by their family. • These activities will only occur if we are in the Yellow or Green phase.

Monitoring Student Athletes and Staff Health

Key Questions

• How will you monitor student athletes, coaches, and others who interact with each other to ensure they are healthy and not exhibiting signs of illness?

• Who will be responsible for monitoring? • Where will the monitoring take place? • When and how frequently will the monitoring take place? • What is the policy for quarantine or isolation if a coach, student athlete, or other member of the school community becomes ill

or has been exposed to an individual confirmed positive for COVID-19? What conditions will a coach or student athlete confirmed to have COVID-19 need to meet to safely return to sports activities? Which staff will be responsible for making decisions regarding quarantine or isolation requirements of coaches or student athletes?

• When and how will families be notified of confirmed coach or student athlete illness or exposure and resulting changes to the local Athletics Health and Safety Plan?

• Which stakeholders will be trained on protocols for monitoring student athlete and staff health? When and how will the training be provided?

Summary of Responses to Key Questions:

• Any participant during off-season activities (coaches, staff, athletes, trainers) must be considered free of any symptoms as outlined in the Chester County Health Department’s guidance of June 19, 2020.

• All participants will complete an online assurance tool affirming they are symptom free. The Athletic Director will designate a person responsible for collecting the information and sharing with relevant coaches.

Emergency Instructional Time Template

Section 520.1

As communicated to chief school administrators on July 6, 2020, Section 520.1 of the School Code

provides flexibility to meet minimum instructional time requirements in the event of an emergency

that prevents a school entity from providing for the attendance of all pupils or usual hours of classes

at the school entity. The Pennsylvania Department of Education (PDE) considers the World Health

Organization-declared Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) a global pandemic and an emergency as

contemplated by Section 520.1.

A local education agency (LEA) that elects to implement temporary provisions in response to the

COVID-19 global pandemic may meet the minimum 180 days of instruction and 900 hours of

instruction at the elementary level and 990 hours of instruction at the secondary level through a

combination of face-to-face and remote instruction, consistent with the requirements outlined in

PDE’s July 6 guidance. Such LEAs must provide PDE with the following information:

1. LEA’s Proposed Calendar and Schedule(s) for SY 2020-21

a. School Year Calendar

School Year Start Date School Year End Date Total Number of

Instructional Days

Must meet minimum 180 days

b. A sample weekly academic schedule as approved by the LEA’s governing body.

(Recognizing the need for flexibility and that circumstances may change as the LEA

responds to the COVID-19 pandemic, an LEA may provide more than one proposed

weekly schedule.) Example schedules are provided in Appendix A.

2. If the proposed schedule includes remote learning (i.e., learning outside the school building),

describe how the LEA will ensure access to remote learning opportunities for all students.

3. The Chief School Administrator and Board President affirm the following:

☐ The proposed school calendar and academic schedule(s) will provide all students the

planned instruction needed to attain the relevant academic standards set forth in Chapter 4.

☐ The proposed school calendar and academic schedule(s) allow sufficient instructional time

necessary for content mastery and provide instructional blocks for each grade level and

content area.

☐ The proposed school calendar and academic schedule(s) provide at least 900 hours

(elementary) and 990 hours (secondary) of in-person instruction and/or remote learning for

all students. (Such time may include synchronous and/or asynchronous instruction.)
