Spanish Schoolhouse continues to prioritize the health and safety of our students and staff.

Here are the current procedures in place at our schools. Procedures may vary slightly by location.

1. Face Masks - Mask policies vary by location, please contact your school for details.


2. Social Distancing Strategies
   • Class ratios will meet the state and local requirements.
   • Children will not rotate to different classrooms or mix with other groups.
   • Extra outdoor activities are added, as feasible, based on health recommendations.
   • The distance between children at circle time, table activities, in line, and at other activities, is increased, where feasible.
   • For rest time, nap mats will be placed head to toe and as far apart as possible.
   
   
3. Intensified Cleaning and Disinfecting Procedures
   • We are maintaining our intensified cleaning, sanitizing, and disinfecting procedures using hospital-grade, EPA certified disinfectants throughout the day.
   • Classrooms are professionally deep-cleaned each night with a special focus on high-touch surfaces, door knobs, light switches, sink handles, etc.
   • Bathrooms are cleaned 3x/day.
   • Toys are cleaned and disinfected daily.
   • Children and staff will wash hands consistently throughout the day, including before and after eating, using the restroom, playing outside, handling trash, etc.
   
   
4. Additional Measures
   • Parents are asked to err on the side of caution and keep children home if they have any symptoms of a respiratory illness or if there is someone in the household with a respiratory illness or a pending COVID test.
   • We ask parents to please refrain from sending any toys from home.
   • Parents are also asked to send a change of clothes with the children.
   
   

Keeping our students and staff SAFE while still learning and having fun is our top priority. We are continuing to do what we do best - educating young children while immersing them in the Spanish language, giving them unique cultural learning experiences, and "letting kids be kids."
