SAFETY PROTOCOLS
-
We will closely adhere to the CDC’s recommendations for sanitation. Groups will be asked to sanitize and disinfect all table surfaces, sports equipment, and any other material that is used during program after each use. Additionally, Program Directors will do routine sanitation checks; ensuring that all program space has been disinfected and cleaned after use. Staff will take children’s temperatures each morning.
-
Anyone with a temperature of 100.0 or higher will be sent home until their fever has subsided for 72 hours without medication.
-
Staff will routinely clean areas in which children play and equipment used by the group.
-
Equipment may not be shared between groups unless it has been disinfected.
-
We will practice social distancing by encouraging children not to touch each other, stay six feet apart, and not share items from home.
-
Hand washing will be done frequently and hand sanitizer will be utilized.
-
Staff will wear masks around children and will serve as an example to health and safety precautions.
-
Both staff and participants to the program will be screened daily as they enter. Screenings will consist of checking temperatures, questions regarding any recent symptoms involving any illness, and required hand washing.
