1241:10Discussion Items
Pam Barash (3min) — A kindergarten teacher expressed concern that staff who travel over spring break may be required to quarantine upon return despite being vaccinated, and asked whether the same quarantine requirement would apply to students and families, given that schools were reopening only three days after spring break.
Indra Hernandez (3min) — A CDC/preschool staff member raised concerns about inconsistent COVID protocols across sites, the wellness survey being misunderstood, uneven enforcement of Wednesday off-campus rules, the timing of second vaccine doses relative to the return date, and requested COVID testing for students before they enter preschool classrooms.
Stephanie Chen (3min) — A parent asked whether the district could establish more uniform return-to-school formats across all schools for equity reasons, rather than having disparate plans at each site.
Shawna Hackworth (1min) — A parent asked whether students currently placed at a school of choice would lose their placement for the following year if they chose to enroll in the proposed virtual academy for 2021-22.
12.1COVID-19 and Reopening UpdateDiscussion
Item details
Rationale: This is a discussion item in which staff will present to the School Board the plan to begin the spring expansion the week of March 22 with full implementation to be completed Thursday, April 8. On Tuesday, January 19, Redwood City School District (RCSD) officially began its staggered reopening after the district's plan was approved by both the San Mateo County Office of Education and San Mateo County Health. The plan for the January reopening was approved following the district's successful operation of Learning Pods with partner organizations in August, expanding the number of Learning Pods in September as well as launching district-operated Learning Hubs, and the launch of a Pilot Program in November. These student campus opportunities ran safely and successfully thanks, in part, to the district's implementation of the Four Pillars (Health & Hygiene, Face Coverings, Physical Distancing, and Limiting Gatherings) as outlined in the San Mateo County Office of Education's Pandemic Recovery Framework for Schools as well as the testing and tracking and tracing system. On Wednesday, February 24, RCSD staff presented to the Board of Trustees the plan for its Spring Expansion of the District January Reopening, which will help bring additional students back to their school campuses for in-person teaching and learning. The district plans to move forward with its plan now that San Mateo County moved from the purple to the red tier in the state's four-tiered, color-coded reopening system and that prioritized vaccination for educators in San Mateo County is already taking place. The district's plan is aligned with Governor Newsom's most recent statement on March 1 to bring students back to school campuses. Financial Impact: None at the moment.
