Safe School Plan

Urban Discovery Schools are committed to the safety and health of every student, educator, staff member and family. Our Safe School Plan has been developed in alignment with the best practices and the guidelines set forth by the Center for Disease Control (CDC), the California Department of Public Health and the California Safe Schools for All plan. Below is a summary of some of the precautions we've put in place to safeguard our community:

  • Addition of the COVID-19 vaccine to vaccination requirements for all eligible students 12+ years old (adopted September 17, 2021)
  • Vaccination policy for all staff and contracted workers (adopted August 18, 2021)
  • Reduced capacity and socially distanced classroom seating
  • Newly installed air filtration systems that meet state ventilation requirements
  • Masks requirements for all onsite students, educators and staff 
  • Opportunity for all educators and staff to be fully vaccinated prior to reopening
  • Staggered class schedules to limit the total number of students onsite
  • Enhanced sanitization of high touch surfaces
  • Student health screening including temperature checks and enhanced infirmary facilities with on-site COVID-19 testing
  • A school-wide communication plan that details requirements in response to confirmed positive cases among onsite students or staff members
  • Additional hand sanitation stations
  • Resources and training to equip teachers with trauma-informed tools to support students navigating stress and anxiety
  • Safety reminders throughout both campuses

Senate Bill 98 (SB 98) established the Learning Continuity and Attendance Plan (Learning Continuity Plan, LCP), which is intended to (1) require a written report and envisioned an off-cycle Local Control and Accountability Plan (LCAP) due December 15th, and (2) the ongoing need for local educational agencies (LEAs) to formally plan for the 2020–21 school year in the midst of the uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.

 

This plan is intended to memorialize the planning process that is already underway for the 2020–21 school year.
