Description

This form is a sample letter in Word format covering the subject matter of the title of the form. Subject: Important Notification: COVID-19 Safety Measures and Updates Dear parents and guardians, I hope this letter finds you all in good health and high spirits. As we embark upon another academic year at [School Name], I wanted to take a moment to provide you with crucial information regarding the COVID-19 safety measures and the guidelines we have adopted to ensure the well-being of our students, staff, and the entire school community. First and foremost, let me assure you that the safety of your children is our top priority. We have been diligently working in cooperation with the Chicago Department of Public Health (CDP) and adhering to the Illinois State Board of Education (ISBN) guidelines to create a secure and healthy learning environment. 1. Hybrid Learning Approach: In light of the ever-evolving situation, we have implemented a hybrid learning approach that combines in-person instruction with remote learning. This approach allows us to minimize the number of students in the building at any given time, promoting social distancing and reducing the risk of potential virus transmission. 2. Enhanced Cleaning and Sanitization: Our school premises are subjected to regular and thorough cleaning and sanitization routines. High-touch surfaces such as doorknobs, railings, desks, and bathrooms are cleaned and disinfected frequently to maintain a safe and sterile environment. 3. Face Covering Requirements: We strictly enforce the mandatory use of face coverings for all individuals, including students, teachers, and staff. Properly worn face masks or coverings contribute significantly to curbing the spread of the virus, and we request your support in ensuring your child comes to school with an appropriate face covering every day. 4. Social Distancing Measures: To adhere to social distancing guidelines, we have rearranged classrooms, common areas, and lunchrooms, ensuring students maintain a safe distance from one another. Floor markings and signage have been placed throughout the school to remind everyone about the importance of maintaining physical distancing protocols. 5. Protocols for Illness or Exposure: In case of any illness symptoms or exposure to COVID-19, we kindly request you to notify the school immediately. Following the guidance provided by the CDP, ISBN, and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), we have implemented protocols to ensure swift actions are taken to safeguard the health of our school community. Besides these measures, we continue to encourage regular handwashing for at least 20 seconds, practicing respiratory etiquette, and monitoring the health of students before sending them to school. It is imperative that we work collaboratively to maintain a safe environment for all. I understand that these are extraordinary circumstances, and we commend your resilience and cooperation. We will continue to closely monitor the situation and provide updates as necessary. Together, we can ensure a safe and healthy educational experience for our students. Should you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out to our dedicated administrative team. We value your partnership, and thank you for your continued support in these challenging times. Stay safe, and looking forward to a successful school year! Warm regards, [Principal's Name] Principal, [School Name]
