COVID-19 Communication

The Prodigy campus is built for such a time as this…

Separated cabin classrooms with plenty of ventilation and natural light

No sharing of hallways 

Individual air systems and bathrooms

Plentiful outdoor learning spaces & more time in nature increases the immune system and overall health

Mealtimes are within the individual cabin classrooms or outdoor picnics

Supply fee allows mass purchasing with single person distribution, thus reducing number of germs introduced into the classroom 

Reduce the germs, thrive in the classroom!

Daily sanitizing measures…

Daily disinfecting of all surface areas including but not limited to doorknobs, chairs, tables, and various areas of contact

Air purifiers that recycle the air every thirty minutes for every classroom 

Hand-sanitizing stations with age-appropriate visible instructions for students

Ensuring and implementing good hand cleaning habits

Lots of windows to open and allow for fresh air

Reduce the germs, thrive in the classroom!

Parents of children within the class and anyone who had contact with the test-positive child will be notified. Siblings of the test-positive child will remain home for 14 days or a negative test result

If fewer than 25% of a class tests COVID positive, the class will continue to meet in person. If 25% or more test COVID positive, the class will shift to remote learning. If more than 25% of the student body is COVID positive, then the whole school shifts to remote learning for two weeks 

If a teacher or assistant tests COVID positive, the teacher and assistant will remain home for the appropriate quarantine time. Students of the class or others who had contact with the staff member will be notified, and the class will continue with a substitute teacher
