Prevention Strategies

Campbell-Savona Plan

Vaccination

Vaccinations are highly encouraged but not required. As such, the health and safety measures in this plan will apply to everyone regardless of their vaccination status.

Currently, no one under the age of 12 is eligible for the COVID-19 vaccine

Consistent and Correct Mask Use

Campbell-Savona will use the CDC transmission level designation:

·       Universal Masking: Due to NYS Department of Health mandate, all teachers, students, staff, and visitors will wear masks indoors, regardless of transmission level and vaccination status

·       Mask breaks: Offered throughout the day

·       Cafeteria: Students and staff unmask while seated in the cafeteria

Physical Distancing

Campbell-Savona will use the CDC community transmission level designation:

When possible, we will maintain at least 3’ distance

Handwashing and Respiratory Etiquette

·       Teach and reinforce handwashing with soap and water for at least 20 seconds, on a frequent basis

Ventilation

·       Open bus windows in warmer weather to improve air circulation

·       Ventilation with fresh outside air will be provided in all occupied spaces
