De La Salle Vocational

Overview

De La Salle Vocational is a community based program located in Bensalem, PA (transportation provided from a central location in Philadelphia) for youth 16.5 – 18 years old. De La Salle Vocational has implemented a Sanctuary Model of Trauma-Informed Care as part of the therapeutic milieu for all clients and staff. A year-round academic program is offered as well as Career and Technical Education in the following areas: Building Maintenance and Repair, General Carpentry, Auto Services, and Culinary Arts. We are pleased to also provide a new program through our partnership with the Pennsylvania Academic and Career/Technical Training Alliance (PACTT): Learn to Earn, which provides service learning projects, opportunity to achieve a high school diploma, paid internships, mentorship in the workplace, and preparation for full-time employment.

History

De La Salle Vocational started September 11, 1974 with the same vision as De La Salle in Towne: to provide a vocational and educational solution for youth who made much progress while at Saint Gabriel’s Hall, but were lost when they returned to the environment of their homes and/or previous schools.

The school was originally started with only five St. Gabriel’s students enrolled to receive vocational training. De La Salle Vocational’s first three trades (auto mechanics, carpentry, and graphic arts) were soon augmented by auto body.

According to “A Century of Service: In the spirit of Saint John Baptist de la Salle) by Brother Joseph L. Grabenstein, FSC, Archivist

Re-Opening Plan and Safety Strategies

(UPDATED 7/7/2020)

Morning Bus Stop

A staff person will be at our Center City and Bridge/Pratt bus stops each morning to administer the necessary daily health check. These checks will involve taking the temperature of each student and asking each student health monitoring questions related to personal symptoms, possible exposure to those with symptoms and recent travel (i.e. within the last twenty-four hours have you had a fever, cough, shortness of breath or loss of smell/taste; within the last twenty-four hours has anyone you live with or had contact with exhibited those symptoms; have you traveled outside of Pennsylvania and to a state with high COVID positive cases within the last fourteen days).
If a student has a fever of (temperature of >100.4) or answers “yes” to either of the health questions, he will be directed by staff to return home. A phone call, then, will be made by the Social Services Worker or administrator to the student’s family and Probation Officer/CUA Case Manager to share this information and to review the “next steps” necessary to prioritize the student’s health and to allow for his return to De La Salle Vocational
If a student refuses to comply with the health check, he will be dismissed home. A phone call, then, will be made by the Social Services Worker or Administrator to the student’s family and Probation Officer/CUA Case Manager to share this information. No student will be permitted to board the bus until completing the health check
Masks must be worn by both staff and students during this process; masks will be provided to any student who reports to the bus without one of his own

Bus

After completing the daily health check, each student will board the bus and will sit in a pattern that allows for (at least) six feet of distance (i.e. every other seat) from all other passengers
Students, staff (our bus supervisor) and the bus driver must wear a mask while on the bus
Upon arrival to De La Salle Vocational, the bus supervisor will slowly dismiss the students from the bus to allow for distancing as they walk from the bus into the building
Per the policies of our contracted bus company (Philly Trans), “All drivers are being given a spray cleaner (Clorox Healthcare Bleach Germicidal Cleaner Spray) that is currently on the FDA authorized list for combating the Corona Virus. They are being asked to use it after all riders exit the bus each time on seat backs, handrails, and any other areas of high contact.” PhillyTrans also reports that, “We have added additional manpower in our ‘Wash Bay/Bus Cleaning Department’ and are vigorously trying to completely disinfect each bus once or twice per week.”

Morning Security Process

Each student will enter the gym through one pair of designated doors and then will be directed to maintain social distancing (following floor tape/decals) while proceeding through the gym and metal detector
Staff subsequently will direct each student from the gym to the attendance table, ensuring a slow, distanced transition from the gym to the attendance table and, then, to the cafeteria
All staff supervising in the gym, at the attendance table and throughout the hallways must wear masks; the students also are required to wear masks during this process

Breakfast

Students will enter the cafeteria and wait in line while maintaining six feet of distance from one another (per floor decals)
A staff person, who is wearing a mask and gloves, will give each student a tray and a plastic-wrapped cutlery set
Each student will proceed through the serving line and will be provided with their choice of pre-wrapped food (i.e. individual boxes of cereal, plastic-wrapped bagels, single cartons of juice, etc.) from staff who are wearing masks and gloves
After receiving his meal, the student will sit at a table; each table will be set with three chairs that are spaced approximately six feet apart to ensure appropriate distancing from all other diners
After eating the meal, each student will report to the gym where social distancing will be maintained with support from staff
Masks are not required while persons (students or staff) are eating or drinking in the cafeteria but, otherwise masks must be worn during the breakfast period (i.e. staff who are supervising in the cafeteria, students who have completed their meal but are engaged in conversation at the table)

Lunch

An administrator will slowly and individually dismiss each class, sending a small number of students and staff to the cafeteria at a time
While waiting in the serving line, students/staff will maintain six feet of distance from one another (per floor tape/decals)
A staff person, who is wearing a mask and gloves, will give each diner a tray and a plastic-wrapped cutlery set
Each diner will proceed through the lunch line and will be provided with their choice of pre-wrapped food from a server who is wearing a mask and gloves
After receiving the meal, each student and staff person will sit at a table; each table will be set with three chairs that are spaced approximately six feet apart to ensure appropriate distancing from all other diners
After eating the meal, each student will report to the gym where social distancing will be maintained with support from staff
Students will not be permitted to play basketball during the lunch period
Masks are not required while persons (students or staff) are eating or drinking in the cafeteria but, otherwise masks must be worn during the lunch period (i.e. staff who are supervising in the cafeteria, students/staff who have completed their meal but are engaged in conversation at the table)

Water

All water fountains including those in the cafeteria, the gym, the vocational shop areas and the hallways will be disabled
Plastic (disposable) bottles of water will be made available to students and staff at both breakfast and lunch
Students also will be permitted to carry a water bottle with them to classes; De La Salle Vocational readily will provide all students and staff with bottles of water (plastic, disposable bottles) at their request

Late Arrivals

Any student who arrives late to the program will enter the building through the front doors and report to the Main Office to be signed-in
An administrator will meet any late student in the Main Office to perform the health check prior to sending him to his assigned class
If a student has a fever or answers “yes” to any of the health questions indicating that he possibly was exposed to COVID-19, we will engage in our protocols for “isolating due to health concerns” and “self-quarantining”

End-of-Day Dismissal

A bell will be rung to signal the end of the day/dismissal
Staff will be present in the hallways to encourage students to maintain distancing as they move from the building to the bus and to ensure that there are no more than two students in the bathroom at a time
Each student will board the bus and will sit in a pattern that allows for (at least) six feet of distance (i.e. every other seat)
Both of the front doors (at the main entrance) will be opened to allow for more space to safely exit the building

Classes

Each class will be rostered with fewer than eight students
Each room will be situated to allow for six feet of distance between all students
Each student will be provided with his own supply of class essentials (i.e. folder, paper, pencils, pens, erasers, highlighters, calculator, text book),
Every student and teacher will wear a mask during the class period; face shields will be provided in the vocational shops
All teachers will be provided with disinfecting supplies and instructed to clean all common surfaces in-between classes
When traveling from one class to another, staff will supervise the hallways and encourage the students to report directly to their next class and to do so while maintaining a safe distance from others

Gym

No basketball during lunch
Non-contact sports and activities that allow for necessary social distancing will be utilized during any scheduled physical education classes
The benches (for seating) in the gym will be placed six feet apart
Social distancing signage will be placed on the balcony to encourage students to maintain a safe space while outside in that area

Social Services Offices

Each office will be organized in a way that allows for six feet of distance between the student and the Social Services Worker
Only one student will be permitted in the office at a time to maintain necessary social distancing
No student should be sent directly to see a Social Services Worker. If a student requests to see his Social Services Worker, the teacher should contact the Deans via the remote radio to coordinate this

Deans’ Area

Before dismissing a student from class for any reason, the teacher must call the Deans of Students via the remote radio and wait for a response/direction from the Deans before sending a student to the office; this is to ensure that there is enough space to safely accommodate another student in the Deans’ area.
The Deans’ area will be organized to allow for a safe separation of students through the use of curtains (barriers)
The Deans will be provided with disinfecting supplies and will clean all common surfaces after a student leaves the office area and periodically throughout the day

Restrooms

No more than two students at a time will be permitted in the bathroom
A male staff person will be stationed at the bathroom at breakfast, at lunch and during the exchange of classes to ensure that no more than two students enter the restroom area at a time
When a student requests to use the restroom during class, the teacher must call the Deans of Students via the remote radio and wait for a response/direction from the Deans before sending that student of class; the Deans will monitor the number of students who are out of class and using the bathroom to ensure that there are no more than two young men in that area at a time

Conference Room

Any meeting involving 3-6 persons will need to occur in the Conference Room
Disinfecting products will be stored in the Conference Room to be used before and after each meeting

Self-Quarantining for Students

If a student answers “yes” to the questions posed during the daily health check, he will be dismissed home.
A phone call, then, will be made by the Social Services Worker or administrator to the student’s family to share and confirm this information.
Any student who was potentially exposed to COVID will be asked to remain home for fourteen days of self-quarantining.
The Social Services Worker and/or administrator will maintain contact with the family and student to keep abreast of the student’s health status and to offer further support and guidance.
If, during this time, the student develops COVID-related symptoms, we would employ our plan that allows for “students returning to program after symptoms”

Self-Quarantining for Staff

If a staff person answers “yes” to the questions posed during the daily health check, (s)he should contact her/his supervisor or other administrator immediately
In coordination with that administrator, the employee will be sent home and asked to remain home for fourteen days of self-quarantining
The staff person’s supervisor will maintain ongoing contact with her/him to keep abreast of the staff’s health status and to offer further support and guidance
If, during this time, the staff person develops COVID-related symptoms, we would employ our plan that allows for “staff returning to program after symptoms”

Isolating Students Due to Health Concerns

If a student spikes a fever or exhibits other COVID-related symptoms while present at De La Salle Vocational, he should report to/be sent to the Deans of Students
The student will be separated from others by sitting in an office that is supervised by a staff person; both the student and the staff person will wear masks. We have two office areas that will be used solely for the purpose of isolating students or staff due to COVID-related health concerns
Staff will make contact with the student’s family to share the health concerns and to make plans to safely get the student home
Throughout the time that the student is in the building and in the presence of staff, that student and any staff working with him will wear masks and all necessary safety precautions will be employed
The office used for the purpose of isolating a symptomatic student will be fully cleaned and disinfected once that student leaves the area

Student Returning to the Program after Symptoms

If a student is dismissed from the De La Salle Vocational with COVID-related symptoms, if he is absent from the program due to such symptoms or if he develops symptoms during a period of self-quarantining, we will ask that he be tested that day or be taken to his doctor for a medical evaluation
The student can return to De La Salle Vocational if the COVID test is negative or if the doctor confirms that the symptoms were not due to COVID; documentation of either the negative test or a doctor’s note is required
If a student tests positive for COVID, he can return to De La Salle Vocational after remaining home for ten days following symptom onset AND is fever-free for seventy-two hours; or the student tests negative on a second COVID test (documentation of that test must be submitted to the program); or the student has a doctor’s note medically clearing him to resume classes
All city and state regulators will be informed of any COVID positive case and related health concerns

Isolating Staff Due to Health Concerns

If a staff person spikes a fever or exhibits other COVID-related symptoms while present at De La Salle Vocational, (s)he should contact her/his supervisor or the program director via telephone or through the remote radio (if using the radio, please make a vague request for an administrator to report to your classroom)
The supervisor/director will ensure that the staff person is in an isolated area and work with her/him to ensure that (s)he can safely get home
Throughout the time that the symptomatic staff person is in the building, (s)he and the supervisor/director will wear masks and all necessary safety precautions will be employed
The office area used for the purpose of isolating a symptomatic staff person will be fully cleaned and disinfected once that individual leaves the area

Staff Returning to the Program after Symptoms

If a staff person leaves De La Salle Vocational with symptoms, if (s)he is absent from work due to such symptoms, or if (s)he develops symptoms during a period of self-quarantining, we will ask that the (s)he be tested that day or see her/his doctor for a medical evaluation
The staff person can return to De La Salle Vocational if the COVID test is negative or if the doctor confirms that the symptoms were not due to COVID; documentation of either the negative test or a doctor’s note is required
If a staff person tests positive for COVID, (s)he can return to De La Salle Vocational after remaining home for ten days following symptom onset AND is fever-free for seventy-two hours; or the staff person tests negative on a second COVID test (documentation of that test must be submitted to the program); or the staff person has a doctor’s note medically clearing her/him to return to work
All city and state regulators will be informed of any COVID positive cases and related health concerns

Attendance

The Assistant Dean and/or Social Services Workers will do daily attendance calls to follow-up on any student who is absent from the program
If the guardian or student reports any potential COVID symptoms, the student will be directed to remain home (per our Return to Program protocol)
All guardians will be strongly encouraged to maintain contact with De La Salle Vocational regarding health and attendance issues
All guardians also will be strongly encouraged to keep the student home if that student is not feeling well
Absences and health updates will be shared with the assigned Probation Officer and/or CUA Case Manager.

Visitors

De La Salle Vocational will allow for necessary visitors (i.e. Probation Officers, CUA Case Managers, Reintegration Workers, collateral professionals who serve as part of the student’s treatment team, delivery persons, the mail carrier, etc.) but all visitors must wear a mask and comply with social distancing practices.
If a visitor needs to meet with a student, (s)he will do so in Room 209, the office located next to the Deans’ area; this office will be organized to allow for necessary social distancing. No meetings should occur in the hallways or the Deans’ area
If a larger space is needed to allow for more than a two-person meeting, the Conference Room will be made available to visitors

General Notes

Each staff will complete a health check (temperature taking and health monitoring questions) immediately upon entering the building to report to work; infrared thermometers and a health log will be kept in the auditorium for the purpose of these daily health checks
All students and staff should remain home if sick or not feeling well
Healthy habits and everyday preventative practices (i.e. handwashing, hand sanitizing, avoiding close contact, covering coughs and sneezes, cleaning and disinfecting your area, monitoring your health, avoiding friendly, close-contact greetings such as handshakes, “fist bumps” and hugs) will be repeatedly and strongly encouraged
Per the Order Requiring Universal Face Coverings announced by the Secretary of the Pennsylvania Department of Health on July 1, 2020 (and further clarified on July 6, 2020 regarding expectations of children and adults in school), all students and staff must wear masks/face coverings when present at De La Salle Vocational
De La Salle Vocational will maintain a supply of cloth and disposable masks for any student, staff or visitor who does not have her/his own. Two cloth face masks were provided to each student prior to our opening (July 6, 2020)
Face shields (plastic shields that cover the entire face from forehead to chin) will be provided in each of the vocational shops. Face shields also will be made available to any person (staff or student) for whom a cloth mask, which fully covers and conceals the mouth/nose, creates a safety concern
The building will be thoroughly cleaned using disinfecting products twice per day

Phased School Reopening

Health and Safety Plan Template

Each school entity must create a Health and Safety Plan which will serve as the local guidelines for all instructional and non- instructional school reopening activities. As with all emergency plans, the Health and Safety Plan developed for each school entity should be tailored to the unique needs of each school and should be created in consultation with local health agencies. Given the dynamic nature of the pandemic, each plan should incorporate enough flexibility to adapt to changing conditions. The templates provided in this toolkit can be used to document a school entity’s Health and Safety Plan, with a focus on professional learning and communications, to ensure all stakeholders are fully informed and prepared for a local phased reopening of school facilities. A school entity’s Health and Safety Plan must be approved by its governing body and posted on the school entity’s publicly available website prior to the reopening of school. School entities should also consider whether the adoption of a new policy or the modification of an existing policy is necessary to effectively implement the Health and Safety Plan.

Each school entity should continue to monitor its Health and Safety Plan throughout the year and update as needed. All revisions should be reviewed and approved by the governing body prior to posting on the school entity’s public website.

Health and Safety Plan Governing Body Affirmation Statement 23

This resource draws on a resource created by the Council of Chief State School Officers (CCSSO) that is based on official guidance from multiple sources to include: the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the White House, American Academy of Pediatrics, Learning Policy Institute, American Enterprise Institute, Rutgers Graduate School of Education, the World Health Organization, the Office of the Prime Minister of Norway as well as the departments of education/health and/or offices of the governor for Idaho, Montana, New York, Texas and Washington, DC.

Health and Safety Plan: (De La Salle Vocational)

All decision-makers should be mindful that as long as there are cases of COVID-19 in the community, there are no strategies that can completely eliminate transmission risk within a school population. The goal is to keep transmission as low as possible to safely continue school activities. All school activities must be informed by Governor Wolf’s Process to Reopen Pennsylvania. The administration has categorized reopening into three broad phases: red, yellow, or green. These designations signal how counties and/or regions may begin easing some restrictions on school, work, congregate settings, and social interactions:

The Red Phase: Schools remain closed for in-person instruction and all instruction must be provided via remote learning, whether using digital or non-digital platforms. Provisions for student services such as school meal programs should continue. Large gatherings are prohibited.
The Yellow Phase and Green Phase: Schools may provide in-person instruction after developing a written Health and Safety Plan, to be approved by the local governing body (e.g. board of directors/trustees) and posted on the school entity’s publicly available website.

Based on your county’s current designation (i.e., red, yellow, green) and the best interests of your local community, indicate which type of reopening your LEA has selected by checking the appropriate box in row three of the table below. Use the remainder of the template to document your LEA’s plan to bring back students and staff, how you will communicate the type of reopening with stakeholders in your community, and the process for continued monitoring of local health data to assess implications for school operations and potential adjustments throughout the school year.

Depending upon the public health conditions in any county within the Commonwealth, there could be additional actions, orders, or guidance provided by the Pennsylvania Department of Education (PDE) and/or the Pennsylvania Department of Health (DOH) designating the county as being in the red, yellow, or green phase. Some counties may not experience a straight path from a red designation, to a yellow, and then a green designation. Instead, cycling back and forth between less restrictive to more restrictive designations may occur as public health indicators improve or worsen. This means that your school entity should account for changing conditions in your local Health and Safety Plan to ensure fluid transition from more to less restrictive conditions in each of the phase requirements as needed.

Type of Reopening

Key Questions

How do you plan to bring students and staff back to physical school buildings, particularly if you still need social distancing in place?
How did you engage stakeholders in the type of re-opening your school entity selected?
How will you communicate your plan to your local community?
Once you reopen, what will the decision-making process look like to prompt a school closure or other significant modification to operations?

Based on your county’s current designation and local community needs, which type of reopening has your school entity selected? (SELECT ONE BOX BELOW)

☒ Total reopen for all students and staff (but some students/families opt for distance learning out of safety/health concern).

☐ Scaffolded reopening: Some students are engaged in in-person learning, while others are distance learning (i.e., some grade levels in-person, other grade levels remote learning).

☐ Blended reopening that balances in-person learning and remote learning for all students (i.e., alternating days or weeks).

☐ Total remote learning for all students. (Plan should reflect future action steps to be implemented and conditions that would prompt the decision as to when schools will re-open for in-person learning).

Anticipated launch date for in-person learning (i.e., start of blended, scaffolded, or total reopening): (July 6, 2020)

Pandemic Coordinator/Team

Each school entity is required to identify a pandemic coordinator and/or pandemic team with defined roles and responsibilities for health and safety preparedness and response planning during the phased reopening of schools. The pandemic coordinator and team will be responsible for facilitating the local planning process, monitoring implementation of your local Health and Safety Plan, and

continued monitoring of local health data to assess implications for school operations and potential adjustments to the Health and Safety Plan throughout the school year. To ensure a comprehensive plan that reflects the considerations and needs of every stakeholder in the local education community, LEAs are encouraged to establish a pandemic team to support the pandemic coordinator. Inclusion of a diverse group of stakeholders is critical to the success of planning and implementation. LEAs are highly encouraged to make extra effort to engage representatives from every stakeholder group (i.e., administrators, teachers, support staff, students, families, community health official or other partners), with a special focus on ensuring that the voices of underrepresented and historically marginalized stakeholder groups are prioritized. In the table below, identify the individual who will serve as the pandemic coordinator and the stakeholder group they represent in the row marked “Pandemic Coordinator”. For each additional pandemic team member, enter the individual’s name, stakeholder group they represent, and the specific role they will play in planning and implementation of your local Health and Safety Plan by entering one of the following under “Pandemic Team Roles and Responsibilities”:

Health and Safety Plan Development: Individual will play a role in drafting the enclosed Health and Safety Plan;
Pandemic Crisis Response Team: Individual will play a role in within-year decision making regarding response efforts in the event of a confirmed positive case or exposure among staff and students; or
Both (Plan Development and Response Team): Individual will play a role in drafting the plan and within-year decision making regarding response efforts in the event of confirmed positive case.

Key Strategies, Policies, and Procedures

Once your LEA has determined the type of reopening that is best for your local community and established a pandemic coordinator and/or pandemic team, use the action plan templates on the following pages to create a thorough plan for each of the requirements outlined in the Pennsylvania Department of Education’s Preliminary Guidance for Phased Reopening of PreK-12 Schools.

For each domain of the Health and Safety Plan, draft a detailed summary describing the key strategies, policies, and procedures your LEA will employ to satisfy the requirements of the domain. The domain summary will serve as the public-facing description of the efforts your LEA will take to ensure health and safety of every stakeholder in your local education community. Thus, the summary should be focused on the key information that staff, students, and families will require to clearly understand your local plan for the phased reopening of schools. You can use the key questions to guide your domain summary.

For each requirement within each domain, document the following:

Action Steps under Yellow Phase: Identify the discrete action steps required to prepare for and implement the requirement under the guidelines outlined for counties in yellow. List the discrete action steps for each requirement in sequential order.
Action Steps under Green Phase: Identify the specific adjustments the LEA or school will make to the requirement during the time period the county is designated as green. If implementation of the requirement will be the same regardless of county designation, then type “same as Yellow” in this cell.
Lead Individual and Position: List the person(s) responsible for ensuring the action steps are fully planned and the school system is prepared for effective implementation.
Materials, Resources, and/or Supports Needed: List any materials, resources, or support required to implement the requirement.
Professional Development (PD) Required: In order to implement this requirement effectively, will staff, students, families, or other stakeholders require professional development?

In the following tables, an asterisk (*) denotes a mandatory element of the plan. All other requirements are highly encouraged to the extent possible.

Cleaning, Sanitizing, Disinfecting, and Ventilation

Key Questions

How will you ensure the building is cleaned and ready to safely welcome staff and students?
How will you procure adequate disinfection supplies meeting OSHA and CDC requirements for COVID-19?
How often will you implement cleaning, sanitation, disinfecting, and ventilation protocols/procedures to maintain staff and student safety?
What protocols will you put in place to clean and disinfect throughout an individual school day?
Which stakeholders will be trained on cleaning, sanitizing, disinfecting, and ventilation protocols? When and how will the training be provided? How will preparedness to implement as a result of the training be measured?

Summary of Responses to Key Questions

Additionally, hand sanitizing products will be available in each classroom and office in addition to the common areas of the building (i.e. the gym, the cafeteria, the bathrooms, central hallways) with students and staff being strongly encouraged to use the sanitizers when entering and exiting those spaces.

All summer staff will participate in a training on July 1, 2020 to review De La Salle Vocational’s safety plan, to understand their responsibilities as a program stakeholder and to learn how/when to complete all necessary tasks. When students arrive to the program on July 6, 2020, they, too, will be informed of our planned safety measures and will be consistently reminded of their need to practice healthy habits and safety measures.

Summary of Responses to Key Questions

Each staff person will complete a health check (temperature taking and health monitoring questions) immediately upon entering the building to report to work; infrared thermometers and a health log will be kept in the auditorium for the purpose of these daily health checks. Healthy habits and everyday preventative practices (i.e. handwashing, hand sanitizing, avoiding close contact, covering coughs and sneezes, cleaning and disinfecting your area, monitoring your health, avoiding friendly, close-contact greetings such as handshakes, “fist bumps” and hugs) will be repeatedly and strongly encouraged. Additionally, all students and staff should remain home if sick or not feeling well.

Every student, after completing the daily health check (i.e. we will take the temperature of each student and ask basic health monitoring questions related to personal symptoms, possible exposure to those with symptoms and recent travel) at our two bus stops, will board the bus and will sit in a pattern that allows for approximately six feet of distance (i.e. every other seat) from all other passengers. Students, staff (our bus supervisor) and the bus driver must wear a mask while on the bus. Upon arrival to De La Salle Vocational, the bus supervisor will slowly dismiss the students from the bus to allow for distancing as they walk from the bus into the building

For both breakfast and lunch, students will enter the cafeteria and wait in line while maintaining six feet of distance from one another (per floor tape/decals). A staff person, who is wearing a mask and gloves, will give each student a tray and a plastic-wrapped cutlery set. Each student will proceed through the serving line and will be provided with their choice of pre-wrapped/individually packaged food. After receiving his meal, the student will sit at a table; each table will be set with three chairs that are spaced approximately six feet apart to ensure appropriate distancing from all other diners. Masks are not required while persons (students or staff) are eating or drinking in the cafeteria but, otherwise, masks must be worn during the breakfast and lunch periods (i.e. staff who are supervising in the cafeteria, students who have completed their meal but are engaged in conversation at the table).

Classes will be rostered with fewer than eight students and will be structured to allow for six feet of distance between each desk/learning area. Each student will be provided with his own supply of class essentials (i.e. folder, paper, pencils, pens, erasers, highlighters, calculator, textbook). Every student and teacher will wear a mask during the class period; face shields will be provided in the vocational shops. All teachers will be given disinfecting supplies and instructed to clean all common surfaces in-between classes. Also, when traveling from one class to another, staff will supervise the hallways and encourage the students to report directly to their next class and to do so while maintaining a safe distance from others.

Each Social Services office will be organized in a way that allows for six feet of distance between the student and the Social Services Worker. Only one student will be permitted in the office at a time to maintain necessary distancing. No student should be sent directly to see a Social Services Worker; if a student requests to see his Social Services Worker, the teacher should contact the Deans via the remote radio to coordinate this. Both the student and the Social Services Worker will wear masks during any counseling session or in-person interaction.

Non-contact sports and activities that allow for necessary social distancing will be utilized during any scheduled physical education classes. The students will not be permitted to play basketball during the recreational time following lunch. The benches (for seating) in the gym will be placed six feet apart and social distancing signage will be placed on the gym balcony to encourage students to maintain a safe space while outside in that area.

No more than two students will be permitted in the bathroom at a time. A male staff person will be stationed at the bathroom at breakfast, at lunch and during the exchange of classes to ensure that no more than two students enter the restroom area at a time. When a student requests to use the restroom during class, the teacher must call the Deans of Students via the remote radio and wait for a response/direction from the Deans before sending that student of class; the Deans will monitor the number of students who are out of class and using the bathroom to ensure that there are no more than two young men in that area at a time.

De La Salle Vocational will allow for necessary visitors (i.e. Probation Officers, CUA Case Managers, Reintegration Workers, collateral professionals who serve as part of the student’s treatment team, delivery persons, the mail carrier, etc.) but all visitors must wear a mask and comply with social distancing practices. If a visitor needs to meet with a student, (s)he will do so in Room 209, the office located next to the Deans’ area; this office will be organized to allow for social distancing and will be equipped with necessary cleaning products (i.e. hand sanitizer and disinfecting wipes/spray). No meetings should occur in the hallways or the Deans’ area. If a larger space is needed to allow for more than a two-person meeting, the Conference Room will be made available to visitors and can accommodate 3-6 persons at a time.

Monitoring Student and Staff Health

Key Questions

How will you monitor students, staff, and others who interact with each other to ensure they are healthy and not exhibiting signs of illness?
Where, to whom, when, and how frequently will the monitoring take place (e.g. parent or child report from home or upon arrival to school)?
What is the policy for quarantine or isolation if a staff, student, or other member of the school community becomes ill or has been exposed to an individual confirmed positive for COVID-19?
Which staff will be responsible for making decisions regarding quarantine or isolation requirements of staff or students?
What conditions will a staff or student confirmed to have COVID-19 need to meet to safely return to school? How will you accommodate staff who are unable to uncomfortable to return?
How will you determine which students are willing/able to return? How will you accommodate students who are unable or uncomfortable to return?
When and how will families be notified of confirmed staff or student illness or exposure and resulting changes to the local Health and Safety Plan?
Which stakeholders will be trained on protocols for monitoring student and staff health? When and how will the training be provided? How will preparedness to implement as a result of the training be measured?

Summary of Responses to Key Questions

HEALTH CHECKS:

Both students and staff will engage in daily health checks. A staff person will be at our Center City and Bridge/Pratt bus stops each morning to administer the necessary daily student health checks. These checks will involve taking the temperature of each student and asking each student health monitoring questions related to personal symptoms, possible exposure to those with symptoms and recent travel (i.e. within the last twenty-four hours have you had a fever, cough, shortness of breath or loss of smell/taste; within the last twenty-four hours has anyone you live with or had contact with exhibited those symptoms; have you traveled outside of Pennsylvania and to a state with high COVID positive cases within the last fourteen days). If a student has a fever of (temperature of >100.4) or answers “yes” to any of the health questions, he will be directed by staff to return home. A phone call, then, will be made to the student’s family and Probation Officer/CUA Case Manager to review the “next steps” necessary to prioritize the student’s health and to allow for his return to De La Salle Vocational. If a student refuses to comply with the health check, he will be dismissed home. A phone call, then, will be made to the student’s family and Probation Officer/CUA Case Manager to share this information. No student will be permitted to board the bus until completing the health check

Similarly, each staff will complete a health check (temperature taking and health monitoring questions) immediately upon entering the De La Salle Vocational building to report to work; infrared thermometers and a health log will be kept in the auditorium for the purpose of these daily health checks

QUARANTINING:

If a student answers “yes” to any of the questions posed during the daily health check, he will be dismissed home. A phone call, then, will be made by the Social Services Worker or administrator to the student’s family to share and confirm this information. Any student who was potentially exposed to COVID will be asked to remain home for fourteen days of self-quarantining. The Social Services Worker and/or administrator will maintain contact with the family and student to keep abreast of the student’s health status and to offer further support and guidance. If, during this time, the student develops COVID-related symptoms, we would employ our plan that allows for “students returning to program after symptoms”

If a staff person answers “yes” to the questions posed during the daily health check, (s)he should contact her/his supervisor or other administrator immediately. In coordination with that administrator, the employee will be sent home and asked to remain home for fourteen days of self-quarantining. The staff person’s supervisor will maintain ongoing contact with her/him to keep abreast of the staff’s health status and to offer further support and guidance. If, during this time, the staff person develops COVID-related symptoms, we would employ our plan that allows for “staff returning to program after symptoms”

ISOLATING DUE TO HEALTH CONCERNS:

If a student spikes a fever or exhibits other COVID-related symptoms while present at De La Salle Vocational, he should report to/be sent to the Deans of Students. The student will be separated from others by sitting in an office that is supervised by a staff person; both the student and the staff person will wear masks. We have two office areas that will be used solely for the purpose of isolating students or staff due to COVID-related health concerns. Staff will make contact with the student’s family to share the health concerns and to make plans to safely get the student home. Throughout the time that the student is in the building and in the presence of staff, that student and any staff working with him will wear masks and all necessary safety precautions will be employed. The office used for the purpose of isolating a symptomatic student will be fully cleaned and disinfected once that student leaves the area.

If a staff person spikes a fever or exhibits other COVID-related symptoms while present at De La Salle Vocational, (s)he should contact her/his supervisor or the program director via telephone or through the remote radio (if using the radio, please make a vague request for an administrator to report to your classroom). The supervisor/director will ensure that the staff person is in an isolated area and work with her/him to ensure that (s)he can safely get home. Throughout the time that the symptomatic staff person is in the building, (s)he and the supervisor/director will wear masks and all necessary safety precautions will be employed. The office area used for the purpose of isolating a symptomatic staff person will be fully cleaned and disinfected once that individual leaves the area.

RETURNING TO THE PROGRAM AFTER SYMPTOMS:

If a student is dismissed from the De La Salle Vocational with COVID-related symptoms, if he is absent from the program due to such symptoms or if he develops symptoms during a period of self-quarantining, we will ask that he be tested that day or be taken to his doctor for a medical evaluation. The student can return to De La Salle Vocational if the COVID test is negative or if the doctor confirms that the symptoms were not due to COVID; documentation of either the negative test or a doctor’s note is required. If a student tests positive for COVID, he can return to De La Salle Vocational after remaining home for ten days following symptom onset AND is fever-free for seventy-two hours; or the student tests negative on a second COVID test (documentation of that test must be submitted to the program); or the student has a doctor’s note medically clearing him to resume classes. All city and state regulators will be informed of any COVID positive cases and related health concerns.

If a staff person leaves De La Salle Vocational with symptoms, if (s)he is absent from work due to such symptoms, or if (s)he develops symptoms during a period of self-quarantining, we will ask that the (s)he be tested that day or see her/his doctor for a medical evaluation. The staff person can return to De La Salle Vocational if the COVID test is negative or if the doctor confirms that the symptoms were not due to COVID; documentation of either the negative test or a doctor’s note is required. If a staff person tests positive for COVID, (s)he can return to De La Salle Vocational after remaining home for ten days following symptom onset AND is fever-free for seventy-two hours; or the staff person tests negative on a second COVID test (documentation of that test must be submitted to the program); or the staff person has a doctor’s note medically clearing her/him to return to work. All city and state regulators will be informed of any COVID positive cases and related health concerns.

Other Considerations for Students and Staff

Key Questions

What is the local policy/procedure regarding face coverings for staff? What is the policy/procedure for students?
What special protocols will you implement to protect students and staff at higher risk for severe illness?
How will you ensure enough substitute teachers are prepared in the event of staff illness?
How will the LEA strategically deploy instructional and non-instructional staff to ensure all students have access to quality learning opportunities, as well as supports for social emotional wellness at school and at home?

Summary of Responses to Key Questions

Per the Order Requiring Universal Face Coverings announced by the Secretary of the Pennsylvania Department of Health on July 1, 2020 (and further clarified on July 6, 2020 regarding expectations of children and adults in school), all students and staff must wear masks/face coverings when present at De La Salle Vocational. We will maintain a supply of cloth and disposable masks for any student, staff or visitor who does not have her/his own. Two cloth face masks were given to each student prior to our opening (July 6, 2020). Face shields (plastic shields that cover the entire face from forehead to chin) will be provided in each of the vocational shops. Face shields also will be made available to any person (staff or student) for whom a cloth mask, which fully covers and conceals the mouth/nose, creates a safety concern.

Facilities Cleaning, Sanitizing, Disinfecting and Ventilation

Requirement(s)	Strategies, Policies and Procedures
* Cleaning, sanitizing, disinfecting, and ventilating learning spaces, surfaces, and any other areas used by students (i.e., restrooms, drinking fountains, hallways, and transportation)	The cleaning, sanitizing and disinfecting of the building will remain a priority to all staff and efforts in this regard will occur throughout the day. All frequently-touched surfaces (i.e. door handles, stair railings) as well as the chairs, desks, and tables throughout the building will be cleaned by the Director of Building and Grounds with a disinfectant product (i.e. Clorox wipes, Lysol spray) early each morning before students and other staff arrive to the program. Cleaning and disinfecting products will be provided to each staff person who will be instructed to clean their classroom and office area periodically throughout the day throughout the day (i.e. teachers will be directed to wipe surface areas and commonly used classroom areas in-between each class; Social Services Workers will clean surface areas in their offices in-between each client session; administrative staff will clean frequently touched areas such as pens, desks, countertops after anyone has visited their office). The Culinary Arts instructors and staff will thoroughly clean the kitchen and cafeteria, using industry-standard but food-safe products to disinfect all equipment, tables, chairs and counters. At the end of each day, our janitor will clean the building including each of the bathrooms, the hallways, the classrooms and the offices. Additionally, hand sanitizing products will be available in each classroom and office in addition to the common areas of the building (i.e. the gym, the cafeteria, the bathrooms, central hallways) with students and staff being strongly encouraged to use the sanitizers when entering and exiting those spaces. All summer staff will participate in a training on July 1, 2020 to review De La Salle Vocational’s safety plan, to understand their responsibilities as a program stakeholder and to learn how/when to complete all necessary tasks. When students arrive to the program on July 6, 2020, they, too, will be informed of our planned safety measures and will be consistently reminded of their need to practice healthy habits and safety measures.

* Classroom/learning space occupancy that allows for 6 feet of separation among students and staff throughout the day, to the maximum extent feasible * Restricting the use of cafeterias and other congregate settings, and serving meals in alternate settings such as classrooms * Hygiene practices for students and staff including the manner and frequency of hand-washing and other best practices * Posting signs, in highly visible locations, that promote everyday protective measures, and how to stop the spread of germs * Handling sporting activities consistent with the CDC Considerations for Youth Sports for recess and physical education classes Limiting the sharing of materials among students Staggering the use of communal spaces and hallways Adjusting transportation schedules and practices to create social distance between students Limiting the number of individuals in classrooms and other learning spaces, and interactions between groups of students Coordinating with local childcare regarding on site care, transportation protocol changes and, when possible, revised hours of operation or modified school-year calendars Other social distancing and safety practices	Upon re-opening the program on July 6, 2020, we anticipate having a maximum of thirty-five young men enrolled at De La Salle Vocational and expect a total of approximately 50-55 persons in the building at any given time. This smaller size, in addition to our ample physical space, supports our ability to establish and maintain social distancing in all areas including the bus, the cafeteria, the gym, the classrooms and the hallways. Each staff person will complete a health check (temperature taking and health monitoring questions) immediately upon entering the building to report to work; infrared thermometers and a health log will be kept in the auditorium for the purpose of these daily health checks. Healthy habits and everyday preventative practices (i.e. handwashing, hand sanitizing, avoiding close contact, covering coughs and sneezes, cleaning and disinfecting your area, monitoring your health, avoiding friendly, close-contact greetings such as handshakes, “fist bumps” and hugs) will be repeatedly and strongly encouraged. Additionally, all students and staff should remain home if sick or not feeling well. Every student, after completing the daily health check (i.e. we will take the temperature of each student and ask basic health monitoring questions related to personal symptoms, possible exposure to those with symptoms and recent travel) at our two bus stops, will board the bus and will sit in a pattern that allows for approximately six feet of distance (i.e. every other seat) from all other passengers. Students, staff (our bus supervisor) and the bus driver must wear a mask while on the bus. Upon arrival to De La Salle Vocational, the bus supervisor will slowly dismiss the students from the bus to allow for distancing as they walk from the bus into the building For both breakfast and lunch, students will enter the cafeteria and wait in line while maintaining six feet of distance from one another (per floor tape/decals). A staff person, who is wearing a mask and gloves, will give each student a tray and a plastic-wrapped cutlery set. Each student will proceed through the serving line and will be provided with their choice of pre-wrapped/individually packaged food. After receiving his meal, the student will sit at a table; each table will be set with three chairs that are spaced approximately six feet apart to ensure appropriate distancing from all other diners. Masks are not required while persons (students or staff) are eating or drinking in the cafeteria but, otherwise, masks must be worn during the breakfast and lunch periods (i.e. staff who are supervising in the cafeteria, students who have completed their meal but are engaged in conversation at the table). Classes will be rostered with fewer than eight students and will be structured to allow for six feet of distance between each desk/learning area. Each student will be provided with his own supply of class essentials (i.e. folder, paper, pencils, pens, erasers, highlighters, calculator, textbook). Every student and teacher will wear a mask during the class period; face shields will be provided in the vocational shops. All teachers will be given disinfecting supplies and instructed to clean all common surfaces in-between classes. Also, when traveling from one class to another, staff will supervise the hallways and encourage the students to report directly to their next class and to do so while maintaining a safe distance from others. Each Social Services office will be organized in a way that allows for six feet of distance between the student and the Social Services Worker. Only one student will be permitted in the office at a time to maintain necessary distancing. No student should be sent directly to see a Social Services Worker; if a student requests to see his Social Services Worker, the teacher should contact the Deans via the remote radio to coordinate this. Both the student and the Social Services Worker will wear masks during any counseling session or in-person interaction. Non-contact sports and activities that allow for necessary social distancing will be utilized during any scheduled physical education classes. The students will not be permitted to play basketball during the recreational time following lunch. The benches (for seating) in the gym will be placed six feet apart and social distancing signage will be placed on the gym balcony to encourage students to maintain a safe space while outside in that area. No more than two students will be permitted in the bathroom at a time. A male staff person will be stationed at the bathroom at breakfast, at lunch and during the exchange of classes to ensure that no more than two students enter the restroom area at a time. When a student requests to use the restroom during class, the teacher must call the Deans of Students via the remote radio and wait for a response/direction from the Deans before sending that student of class; the Deans will monitor the number of students who are out of class and using the bathroom to ensure that there are no more than two young men in that area at a time. De La Salle Vocational will allow for necessary visitors (i.e. Probation Officers, CUA Case Managers, Reintegration Workers, collateral professionals who serve as part of the student’s treatment team, delivery persons, the mail carrier, etc.) but all visitors must wear a mask and comply with social distancing practices. If a visitor needs to meet with a student, (s)he will do so in Room 209, the office located next to the Deans’ area; this office will be organized to allow for social distancing and will be equipped with necessary cleaning products (i.e. hand sanitizer and disinfecting wipes/spray). No meetings should occur in the hallways or the Deans’ area. If a larger space is needed to allow for more than a two-person meeting, the Conference Room will be made available to visitors and can accommodate 3-6 persons at a time.

Requirement(s)

Strategies, Policies and Procedures

* Classroom/learning space occupancy that allows for 6 feet of separation among students and staff throughout the day, to the maximum extent feasible * Restricting the use of cafeterias and other congregate settings, and serving meals in alternate settings such as classrooms * Hygiene practices for students and staff including the manner and frequency of hand-washing and other best practices * Posting signs, in highly visible locations, that promote everyday protective measures, and how to stop the spread of germs * Handling sporting activities consistent with the CDC Considerations for Youth Sports for recess and physical education classes Limiting the sharing of materials among students Staggering the use of communal spaces and hallways Adjusting transportation schedules and practices to create social distance between students Limiting the number of individuals in classrooms and other learning spaces, and interactions between groups of students Coordinating with local childcare regarding on site care, transportation protocol changes and, when possible, revised hours of operation or modified school-year calendars Other social distancing and safety practices

Upon re-opening the program on July 6, 2020, we anticipate having a maximum of thirty-five young men enrolled at De La Salle Vocational and expect a total of approximately 50-55 persons in the building at any given time. This smaller size, in addition to our ample physical space, supports our ability to establish and maintain social distancing in all areas including the bus, the cafeteria, the gym, the classrooms and the hallways. Each staff person will complete a health check (temperature taking and health monitoring questions) immediately upon entering the building to report to work; infrared thermometers and a health log will be kept in the auditorium for the purpose of these daily health checks. Healthy habits and everyday preventative practices (i.e. handwashing, hand sanitizing, avoiding close contact, covering coughs and sneezes, cleaning and disinfecting your area, monitoring your health, avoiding friendly, close-contact greetings such as handshakes, “fist bumps” and hugs) will be repeatedly and strongly encouraged. Additionally, all students and staff should remain home if sick or not feeling well. Every student, after completing the daily health check (i.e. we will take the temperature of each student and ask basic health monitoring questions related to personal symptoms, possible exposure to those with symptoms and recent travel) at our two bus stops, will board the bus and will sit in a pattern that allows for approximately six feet of distance (i.e. every other seat) from all other passengers. Students, staff (our bus supervisor) and the bus driver must wear a mask while on the bus. Upon arrival to De La Salle Vocational, the bus supervisor will slowly dismiss the students from the bus to allow for distancing as they walk from the bus into the building For both breakfast and lunch, students will enter the cafeteria and wait in line while maintaining six feet of distance from one another (per floor tape/decals). A staff person, who is wearing a mask and gloves, will give each student a tray and a plastic-wrapped cutlery set. Each student will proceed through the serving line and will be provided with their choice of pre-wrapped/individually packaged food. After receiving his meal, the student will sit at a table; each table will be set with three chairs that are spaced approximately six feet apart to ensure appropriate distancing from all other diners. Masks are not required while persons (students or staff) are eating or drinking in the cafeteria but, otherwise, masks must be worn during the breakfast and lunch periods (i.e. staff who are supervising in the cafeteria, students who have completed their meal but are engaged in conversation at the table). Classes will be rostered with fewer than eight students and will be structured to allow for six feet of distance between each desk/learning area. Each student will be provided with his own supply of class essentials (i.e. folder, paper, pencils, pens, erasers, highlighters, calculator, textbook). Every student and teacher will wear a mask during the class period; face shields will be provided in the vocational shops. All teachers will be given disinfecting supplies and instructed to clean all common surfaces in-between classes. Also, when traveling from one class to another, staff will supervise the hallways and encourage the students to report directly to their next class and to do so while maintaining a safe distance from others. Each Social Services office will be organized in a way that allows for six feet of distance between the student and the Social Services Worker. Only one student will be permitted in the office at a time to maintain necessary distancing. No student should be sent directly to see a Social Services Worker; if a student requests to see his Social Services Worker, the teacher should contact the Deans via the remote radio to coordinate this. Both the student and the Social Services Worker will wear masks during any counseling session or in-person interaction. Non-contact sports and activities that allow for necessary social distancing will be utilized during any scheduled physical education classes. The students will not be permitted to play basketball during the recreational time following lunch. The benches (for seating) in the gym will be placed six feet apart and social distancing signage will be placed on the gym balcony to encourage students to maintain a safe space while outside in that area. No more than two students will be permitted in the bathroom at a time. A male staff person will be stationed at the bathroom at breakfast, at lunch and during the exchange of classes to ensure that no more than two students enter the restroom area at a time. When a student requests to use the restroom during class, the teacher must call the Deans of Students via the remote radio and wait for a response/direction from the Deans before sending that student of class; the Deans will monitor the number of students who are out of class and using the bathroom to ensure that there are no more than two young men in that area at a time. De La Salle Vocational will allow for necessary visitors (i.e. Probation Officers, CUA Case Managers, Reintegration Workers, collateral professionals who serve as part of the student’s treatment team, delivery persons, the mail carrier, etc.) but all visitors must wear a mask and comply with social distancing practices. If a visitor needs to meet with a student, (s)he will do so in Room 209, the office located next to the Deans’ area; this office will be organized to allow for social distancing and will be equipped with necessary cleaning products (i.e. hand sanitizer and disinfecting wipes/spray).

If a larger space is needed to allow for more than a two-person meeting, the Conference Room will be made available to visitors and can accommodate 3-6 persons at a time.

Monitoring Student and Staff Health

Requirement(s)	Strategies, Policies and Procedures
* Monitoring students and staff for symptoms and history of exposure * Isolating or quarantining students, staff, or visitors if they become sick or demonstrate a history of exposure * Returning isolated or quarantined staff, students, or visitors to school Notifying staff, families, and the public of school closures and within-school- year changes in safety protocols	In an effort to monitor health and to promote safety, De La Salle Vocational has developed policies for daily health checks, self-quarantining and the isolation of a student or staff exhibiting symptoms. HEALTH CHECKS: Both students and staff will engage in daily health checks. A staff person will be at our Center City and Bridge/Pratt bus stops each morning to administer the necessary daily student health checks. These checks will involve taking the temperature of each student and asking each student health monitoring questions related to personal symptoms, possible exposure to those with symptoms and recent travel (i.e. within the last twenty-four hours have you had a fever, cough, shortness of breath or loss of smell/taste; within the last twenty-four hours has anyone you live with or had contact with exhibited those symptoms; have you traveled outside of Pennsylvania and to a state with high COVID positive cases within the last fourteen days). If a student has a fever of (temperature of >100.4) or answers “yes” to any of the health questions, he will be directed by staff to return home. A phone call, then, will be made to the student’s family and Probation Officer/CUA Case Manager to review the “next steps” necessary to prioritize the student’s health and to allow for his return to De La Salle Vocational. If a student refuses to comply with the health check, he will be dismissed home. A phone call, then, will be made to the student’s family and Probation Officer/CUA Case Manager to share this information. No student will be permitted to board the bus until completing the health check Similarly, each staff will complete a health check (temperature taking and health monitoring questions) immediately upon entering the De La Salle Vocational building to report to work; infrared thermometers and a health log will be kept in the auditorium for the purpose of these daily health checks QUARANTINING: If a student answers “yes” to any of the questions posed during the daily health check, he will be dismissed home. A phone call, then, will be made by the Social Services Worker or administrator to the student’s family to share and confirm this information. Any student who was potentially exposed to COVID will be asked to remain home for fourteen days of self-quarantining. The Social Services Worker and/or administrator will maintain contact with the family and student to keep abreast of the student’s health status and to offer further support and guidance. If, during this time, the student develops COVID-related symptoms, we would employ our plan that allows for “students returning to program after symptoms” If a staff person answers “yes” to the questions posed during the daily health check, (s)he should contact her/his supervisor or other administrator immediately. In coordination with that administrator, the employee will be sent home and asked to remain home for fourteen days of self-quarantining. The staff person’s supervisor will maintain ongoing contact with her/him to keep abreast of the staff’s health status and to offer further support and guidance. If, during this time, the staff person develops COVID-related symptoms, we would employ our plan that allows for “staff returning to program after symptoms” ISOLATING DUE TO HEALTH CONCERNS: If a student spikes a fever or exhibits other COVID-related symptoms while present at De La Salle Vocational, he should report to/be sent to the Deans of Students. The student will be separated from others by sitting in an office that is supervised by a staff person; both the student and the staff person will wear masks. We have two office areas that will be used solely for the purpose of isolating students or staff due to COVID-related health concerns. Staff will make contact with the student’s family to share the health concerns and to make plans to safely get the student home. Throughout the time that the student is in the building and in the presence of staff, that student and any staff working with him will wear masks and all necessary safety precautions will be employed. The office used for the purpose of isolating a symptomatic student will be fully cleaned and disinfected once that student leaves the area. If a staff person spikes a fever or exhibits other COVID-related symptoms while present at De La Salle Vocational, (s)he should contact her/his supervisor or the program director via telephone or through the remote radio (if using the radio, please make a vague request for an administrator to report to your classroom). The supervisor/director will ensure that the staff person is in an isolated area and work with her/him to ensure that (s)he can safely get home. Throughout the time that the symptomatic staff person is in the building, (s)he and the supervisor/director will wear masks and all necessary safety precautions will be employed. The office area used for the purpose of isolating a symptomatic staff person will be fully cleaned and disinfected once that individual leaves the area. RETURNING TO THE PROGRAM AFTER SYMPTOMS: If a student is dismissed from the De La Salle Vocational with COVID-related symptoms, if he is absent from the program due to such symptoms or if he develops symptoms during a period of self-quarantining, we will ask that he be tested that day or be taken to his doctor for a medical evaluation. The student can return to De La Salle Vocational if the COVID test is negative or if the doctor confirms that the symptoms were not due to COVID; documentation of either the negative test or a doctor’s note is required. If a student tests positive for COVID, he can return to De La Salle Vocational after remaining home for ten days following symptom onset AND is fever-free for seventy-two hours; or the student tests negative on a second COVID test (documentation of that test must be submitted to the program); or the student has a doctor’s note medically clearing him to resume classes. All city and state regulators will be informed of any COVID positive cases and related health concerns. If a staff person leaves De La Salle Vocational with symptoms, if (s)he is absent from work due to such symptoms, or if (s)he develops symptoms during a period of self-quarantining, we will ask that the (s)he be tested that day or see her/his doctor for a medical evaluation. The staff person can return to De La Salle Vocational if the COVID test is negative or if the doctor confirms that the symptoms were not due to COVID; documentation of either the negative test or a doctor’s note is required. If a staff person tests positive for COVID, (s)he can return to De La Salle Vocational after remaining home for ten days following symptom onset AND is fever-free for seventy-two hours; or the staff person tests negative on a second COVID test (documentation of that test must be submitted to the program); or the staff person has a doctor’s note medically clearing her/him to return to work.

* Classroom/ learning space occupancy that allows for 6 feet of separation among students and staff throughout the day, to the maximum extent feasible	Classes will be rostered with fewer than eight students and will be situated to allow for six feet of distance between each desk/learning area Social Services Workers’ offices will be reconfigured to allow for six feet of distance between the Social Services Worker’s desk/chair and the client’s seat. Social Services Workers will meet with only one client at a time to maintain safe distancing guidelines. All classrooms and offices will be set-up in accordance with these expectations and safety protocols during the week of June 22, 2020.	SAME AS YELLOW	Richelle Sherwood (Director) William Cleary (Director of Physical Plant) Social Services Workers	Ms. Sherwood and Mr. Cleary, with assistance from individual staff, will re-arrange all classrooms and offices to establish the needed six feet of separation. All desks, tables, chairs, etc. already exist within De La Salle Vocational and will be used accordingly.	N
* Restricting the use of cafeterias and other congregate settings, and serving meals in alternate settings such as classrooms	We average less than fifty-five persons in the cafeteria at either breakfast or lunch. All unnecessary furniture and equipment will be removed from the cafeteria to allow for twenty tables to be set-up with approximately six feet between each one. Three chairs will arranged at each table to provide approximately six feet between each diner at the table. Signs demarking six feet of distance will be added to the cafeteria floor to ensure that all diners are safely distanced from one another while waiting in line to be served. All food will be pre-wrapped/pre-packaged and provided to each diner by a staff person who is wearing gloves and a mask.	SAME AS YELLOW	Richelle Sherwood (Director) Denise Wallace (Assistant to the Director) Culinary Arts instructors	Signage to establish social distancing in the serving line and removal of excessive chairs from each of the tables.	N
* Hygiene practices for students and staff including the manner and frequency of hand-washing and other best practices	Hand sanitizing products will be available in each classroom and office in addition to the common areas of the building (i.e. the gym, the cafeteria, the bathrooms) with students being strongly encouraged to use the sanitizers when entering and exiting those spaces. Soap exists at all sinks and in all bathrooms throughout the building. Both staff and students will be reminded of the importance of frequent hand-washing as well as of the correct method by which to wash their hands both verbally and through signage.	SAME AS YELLOW	William Cleary (Director of Physical Plant) Janitorial staff	Soap, hand sanitizer and signage	N
* Posting signs, in highly visible locations, that promote everyday protective measures, and how to stop the spread of germs	Signs promoting healthy hygiene practices and safety measures (i.e. hand washing, hand sanitizing, wearing masks, maintain social distancing, remaining home if sick, etc.) will be placed throughout the building including at the building entrance, in classrooms and in the common areas of the building.	SAME AS YELLOW	Denise Wallace (Assistant to the Director)	Social distancing signs will be ordered and hung by Ms. Wallace.	N
* Identifying and restricting non-essential visitors and volunteers	Necessary visitors (i.e. Probation Officers, CUA Case Managers, Reintegration Workers, collateral professionals who serve as part of the student’s treatment team, delivery persons, the mail carrier, etc.) will be permitted but must wear a mask and comply with social distancing practices. If a visitor needs to meet with a student, (s)he will do so in a specific office which is organized to allow for social distancing and will be equipped with necessary cleaning products (i.e. hand sanitizer and disinfecting wipes/spray). No meetings should occur in the hallways or the Deans’ area. If a larger space is needed to allow for more than a two-person meeting, the Conference Room will be made available to visitors and can accommodate 3-6 persons at a time.

Anticipated Launch Date: (July 6, 2020)

Facilities Cleaning, Sanitizing, Disinfecting and Ventilation

Requirement(s)	Strategies, Policies and Procedures
* Cleaning, sanitizing, disinfecting, and ventilating learning spaces, surfaces, and any other areas used by students (i.e., restrooms, drinking fountains, hallways, and transportation)	The cleaning, sanitizing and disinfecting of the building will remain a priority to all staff and efforts in this regard will occur throughout the day. All frequently-touched surfaces (i.e. door handles, stair railings) as well as the chairs, desks, and tables throughout the building will be cleaned by the Director of Building and Grounds with a disinfectant product (i.e. Clorox wipes, Lysol spray) early each morning before students and other staff arrive to the program. Cleaning and disinfecting products will be provided to each staff person who will be instructed to clean their classroom and office area periodically throughout the day throughout the day (i.e. teachers will be directed to wipe surface areas and commonly used classroom areas in-between each class; Social Services Workers will clean surface areas in their offices in-between each client session; administrative staff will clean frequently touched areas such as pens, desks, countertops after anyone has visited their office). The Culinary Arts instructors and staff will thoroughly clean the kitchen and cafeteria, using industry-standard but food-safe products to disinfect all equipment, tables, chairs and counters. At the end of each day, our janitor will clean the building including each of the bathrooms, the hallways, the classrooms and the offices. Additionally, hand sanitizing products will be available in each classroom and office in addition to the common areas of the building (i.e. the gym, the cafeteria, the bathrooms, central hallways) with students and staff being strongly encouraged to use the sanitizers when entering and exiting those spaces. All summer staff will participate in a training on July 1, 2020 to review De La Salle Vocational’s safety plan, to understand their responsibilities as a program stakeholder and to learn how/when to complete all necessary tasks. When students arrive to the program on July 6, 2020, they, too, will be informed of our planned safety measures and will be consistently reminded of their need to practice healthy habits and safety measures.

Social Distancing and Other Safety Protocols

Requirement(s)	Strategies, Policies and Procedures
* Classroom/learning space occupancy that allows for 6 feet of separation among students and staff throughout the day, to the maximum extent feasible * Restricting the use of cafeterias and other congregate settings, and serving meals in alternate settings such as classrooms * Hygiene practices for students and staff including the manner and frequency of hand-washing and other best practices * Posting signs, in highly visible locations, that promote everyday protective measures, and how to stop the spread of germs * Handling sporting activities consistent with the CDC Considerations for Youth Sports for recess and physical education classes Limiting the sharing of materials among students Staggering the use of communal spaces and hallways Adjusting transportation schedules and practices to create social distance between students Limiting the number of individuals in classrooms and other learning spaces, and interactions between groups of students Coordinating with local childcare regarding on site care, transportation protocol changes and, when possible, revised hours of operation or modified school-year calendars Other social distancing and safety practices	Upon re-opening the program on July 6, 2020, we anticipate having a maximum of thirty-five young men enrolled at De La Salle Vocational and expect a total of approximately 50-55 persons in the building at any given time. This smaller size, in addition to our ample physical space, supports our ability to establish and maintain social distancing in all areas including the bus, the cafeteria, the gym, the classrooms and the hallways. Each staff person will complete a health check (temperature taking and health monitoring questions) immediately upon entering the building to report to work; infrared thermometers and a health log will be kept in the auditorium for the purpose of these daily health checks. Healthy habits and everyday preventative practices (i.e. handwashing, hand sanitizing, avoiding close contact, covering coughs and sneezes, cleaning and disinfecting your area, monitoring your health, avoiding friendly, close-contact greetings such as handshakes, “fist bumps” and hugs) will be repeatedly and strongly encouraged. Additionally, all students and staff should remain home if sick or not feeling well. Every student, after completing the daily health check (i.e. we will take the temperature of each student and ask basic health monitoring questions related to personal symptoms, possible exposure to those with symptoms and recent travel) at our two bus stops, will board the bus and will sit in a pattern that allows for approximately six feet of distance (i.e. every other seat) from all other passengers. Students, staff (our bus supervisor) and the bus driver must wear a mask while on the bus. Upon arrival to De La Salle Vocational, the bus supervisor will slowly dismiss the students from the bus to allow for distancing as they walk from the bus into the building For both breakfast and lunch, students will enter the cafeteria and wait in line while maintaining six feet of distance from one another (per floor tape/decals). A staff person, who is wearing a mask and gloves, will give each student a tray and a plastic-wrapped cutlery set. Each student will proceed through the serving line and will be provided with their choice of pre-wrapped/individually packaged food. After receiving his meal, the student will sit at a table; each table will be set with three chairs that are spaced approximately six feet apart to ensure appropriate distancing from all other diners. Masks are not required while persons (students or staff) are eating or drinking in the cafeteria but, otherwise, masks must be worn during the breakfast and lunch periods (i.e. staff who are supervising in the cafeteria, students who have completed their meal but are engaged in conversation at the table). Classes will be rostered with fewer than eight students and will be structured to allow for six feet of distance between each desk/learning area. Each student will be provided with his own supply of class essentials (i.e. folder, paper, pencils, pens, erasers, highlighters, calculator, textbook). Every student and teacher will wear a mask during the class period; face shields will be provided in the vocational shops. All teachers will be given disinfecting supplies and instructed to clean all common surfaces in-between classes. Also, when traveling from one class to another, staff will supervise the hallways and encourage the students to report directly to their next class and to do so while maintaining a safe distance from others. Each Social Services office will be organized in a way that allows for six feet of distance between the student and the Social Services Worker. Only one student will be permitted in the office at a time to maintain necessary distancing. No student should be sent directly to see a Social Services Worker; if a student requests to see his Social Services Worker, the teacher should contact the Deans via the remote radio to coordinate this. Both the student and the Social Services Worker will wear masks during any counseling session or in-person interaction. Non-contact sports and activities that allow for necessary social distancing will be utilized during any scheduled physical education classes. The students will not be permitted to play basketball during the recreational time following lunch. The benches (for seating) in the gym will be placed six feet apart and social distancing signage will be placed on the gym balcony to encourage students to maintain a safe space while outside in that area. No more than two students will be permitted in the bathroom at a time. A male staff person will be stationed at the bathroom at breakfast, at lunch and during the exchange of classes to ensure that no more than two students enter the restroom area at a time. When a student requests to use the restroom during class, the teacher must call the Deans of Students via the remote radio and wait for a response/direction from the Deans before sending that student of class; the Deans will monitor the number of students who are out of class and using the bathroom to ensure that there are no more than two young men in that area at a time. De La Salle Vocational will allow for necessary visitors (i.e. Probation Officers, CUA Case Managers, Reintegration Workers, collateral professionals who serve as part of the student’s treatment team, delivery persons, the mail carrier, etc.) but all visitors must wear a mask and comply with social distancing practices. If a visitor needs to meet with a student, (s)he will do so in Room 209, the office located next to the Deans’ area; this office will be organized to allow for social distancing and will be equipped with necessary cleaning products (i.e. hand sanitizer and disinfecting wipes/spray). No meetings should occur in the hallways or the Deans’ area. If a larger space is needed to allow for more than a two-person meeting, the Conference Room will be made available to visitors and can accommodate 3-6 persons at a time.

Monitoring Student and Staff Health

Requirement(s)	Strategies, Policies and Procedures
* Monitoring students and staff for symptoms and history of exposure * Isolating or quarantining students, staff, or visitors if they become sick or demonstrate a history of exposure * Returning isolated or quarantined staff, students, or visitors to school Notifying staff, families, and the public of school closures and within-school- year changes in safety protocols	In an effort to monitor health and to promote safety, De La Salle Vocational has developed policies for daily health checks, self-quarantining and the isolation of a student or staff exhibiting symptoms. HEALTH CHECKS: Both students and staff will engage in daily health checks. A staff person will be at our Center City and Bridge/Pratt bus stops each morning to administer the necessary daily student health checks. These checks will involve taking the temperature of each student and asking each student health monitoring questions related to personal symptoms, possible exposure to those with symptoms and recent travel (i.e. within the last twenty-four hours have you had a fever, cough, shortness of breath or loss of smell/taste; within the last twenty-four hours has anyone you live with or had contact with exhibited those symptoms; have you traveled outside of Pennsylvania and to a state with high COVID positive cases within the last fourteen days). If a student has a fever of (temperature of >100.4) or answers “yes” to any of the health questions, he will be directed by staff to return home. A phone call, then, will be made to the student’s family and Probation Officer/CUA Case Manager to review the “next steps” necessary to prioritize the student’s health and to allow for his return to De La Salle Vocational. If a student refuses to comply with the health check, he will be dismissed home. A phone call, then, will be made to the student’s family and Probation Officer/CUA Case Manager to share this information. No student will be permitted to board the bus until completing the health check Similarly, each staff will complete a health check (temperature taking and health monitoring questions) immediately upon entering the De La Salle Vocational building to report to work; infrared thermometers and a health log will be kept in the auditorium for the purpose of these daily health checks QUARANTINING: If a student answers “yes” to any of the questions posed during the daily health check, he will be dismissed home. A phone call, then, will be made by the Social Services Worker or administrator to the student’s family to share and confirm this information. Any student who was potentially exposed to COVID will be asked to remain home for fourteen days of self-quarantining. The Social Services Worker and/or administrator will maintain contact with the family and student to keep abreast of the student’s health status and to offer further support and guidance. If, during this time, the student develops COVID-related symptoms, we would employ our plan that allows for “students returning to program after symptoms” If a staff person answers “yes” to the questions posed during the daily health check, (s)he should contact her/his supervisor or other administrator immediately. In coordination with that administrator, the employee will be sent home and asked to remain home for fourteen days of self-quarantining. The staff person’s supervisor will maintain ongoing contact with her/him to keep abreast of the staff’s health status and to offer further support and guidance. If, during this time, the staff person develops COVID-related symptoms, we would employ our plan that allows for “staff returning to program after symptoms” ISOLATING DUE TO HEALTH CONCERNS: If a student spikes a fever or exhibits other COVID-related symptoms while present at De La Salle Vocational, he should report to/be sent to the Deans of Students. The student will be separated from others by sitting in an office that is supervised by a staff person; both the student and the staff person will wear masks. We have two office areas that will be used solely for the purpose of isolating students or staff due to COVID-related health concerns. Staff will make contact with the student’s family to share the health concerns and to make plans to safely get the student home. Throughout the time that the student is in the building and in the presence of staff, that student and any staff working with him will wear masks and all necessary safety precautions will be employed. The office used for the purpose of isolating a symptomatic student will be fully cleaned and disinfected once that student leaves the area. If a staff person spikes a fever or exhibits other COVID-related symptoms while present at De La Salle Vocational, (s)he should contact her/his supervisor or the program director via telephone or through the remote radio (if using the radio, please make a vague request for an administrator to report to your classroom). The supervisor/director will ensure that the staff person is in an isolated area and work with her/him to ensure that (s)he can safely get home. Throughout the time that the symptomatic staff person is in the building, (s)he and the supervisor/director will wear masks and all necessary safety precautions will be employed. The office area used for the purpose of isolating a symptomatic staff person will be fully cleaned and disinfected once that individual leaves the area. RETURNING TO THE PROGRAM AFTER SYMPTOMS: If a student is dismissed from the De La Salle Vocational with COVID-related symptoms, if he is absent from the program due to such symptoms or if he develops symptoms during a period of self-quarantining, we will ask that he be tested that day or be taken to his doctor for a medical evaluation. The student can return to De La Salle Vocational if the COVID test is negative or if the doctor confirms that the symptoms were not due to COVID; documentation of either the negative test or a doctor’s note is required. If a student tests positive for COVID, he can return to De La Salle Vocational after remaining home for ten days following symptom onset AND is fever-free for seventy-two hours; or the student tests negative on a second COVID test (documentation of that test must be submitted to the program); or the student has a doctor’s note medically clearing him to resume classes. All city and state regulators will be informed of any COVID positive cases and related health concerns. If a staff person leaves De La Salle Vocational with symptoms, if (s)he is absent from work due to such symptoms, or if (s)he develops symptoms during a period of self-quarantining, we will ask that the (s)he be tested that day or see her/his doctor for a medical evaluation. The staff person can return to De La Salle Vocational if the COVID test is negative or if the doctor confirms that the symptoms were not due to COVID; documentation of either the negative test or a doctor’s note is required. If a staff person tests positive for COVID, (s)he can return to De La Salle Vocational after remaining home for ten days following symptom onset AND is fever-free for seventy-two hours; or the staff person tests negative on a second COVID test (documentation of that test must be submitted to the program); or the staff person has a doctor’s note medically clearing her/him to return to work.

HEALTH CHECKS: Both students and staff will engage in daily health checks. A staff person will be at our Center City and Bridge/Pratt bus stops each morning to administer the necessary daily student health checks. These checks will involve taking the temperature of each student and asking each student health monitoring questions related to personal symptoms, possible exposure to those with symptoms and recent travel (i.e. within the last twenty-four hours have you had a fever, cough, shortness of breath or loss of smell/taste; within the last twenty-four hours has anyone you live with or had contact with exhibited those symptoms; have you traveled outside of Pennsylvania and to a state with high COVID positive cases within the last fourteen days). If a student has a fever of (temperature of >100.4) or answers “yes” to any of the health questions, he will be directed by staff to return home. A phone call, then, will be made to the student’s family and Probation Officer/CUA Case Manager to review the “next steps” necessary to prioritize the student’s health and to allow for his return to De La Salle Vocational. If a student refuses to comply with the health check, he will be dismissed home. A phone call, then, will be made to the student’s family and Probation Officer/CUA Case Manager to share this information. No student will be permitted to board the bus until completing the health check Similarly, each staff will complete a health check (temperature taking and health monitoring questions) immediately upon entering the De La Salle Vocational building to report to work; infrared thermometers and a health log will be kept in the auditorium for the purpose of these daily health checks QUARANTINING: If a student answers “yes” to any of the questions posed during the daily health check, he will be dismissed home. A phone call, then, will be made by the Social Services Worker or administrator to the student’s family to share and confirm this information. Any student who was potentially exposed to COVID will be asked to remain home for fourteen days of self-quarantining. The Social Services Worker and/or administrator will maintain contact with the family and student to keep abreast of the student’s health status and to offer further support and guidance. If, during this time, the student develops COVID-related symptoms, we would employ our plan that allows for “students returning to program after symptoms” If a staff person answers “yes” to the questions posed during the daily health check, (s)he should contact her/his supervisor or other administrator immediately. In coordination with that administrator, the employee will be sent home and asked to remain home for fourteen days of self-quarantining. The staff person’s supervisor will maintain ongoing contact with her/him to keep abreast of the staff’s health status and to offer further support and guidance. If, during this time, the staff person develops COVID-related symptoms, we would employ our plan that allows for “staff returning to program after symptoms” ISOLATING DUE TO HEALTH CONCERNS: If a student spikes a fever or exhibits other COVID-related symptoms while present at De La Salle Vocational, he should report to/be sent to the Deans of Students. The student will be separated from others by sitting in an office that is supervised by a staff person; both the student and the staff person will wear masks. We have two office areas that will be used solely for the purpose of isolating students or staff due to COVID-related health concerns. Staff will make contact with the student’s family to share the health concerns and to make plans to safely get the student home. Throughout the time that the student is in the building and in the presence of staff, that student and any staff working with him will wear masks and all necessary safety precautions will be employed. The office used for the purpose of isolating a symptomatic student will be fully cleaned and disinfected once that student leaves the area. If a staff person spikes a fever or exhibits other COVID-related symptoms while present at De La Salle Vocational, (s)he should contact her/his supervisor or the program director via telephone or through the remote radio (if using the radio, please make a vague request for an administrator to report to your classroom). The supervisor/director will ensure that the staff person is in an isolated area and work with her/him to ensure that (s)he can safely get home. Throughout the time that the symptomatic staff person is in the building, (s)he and the supervisor/director will wear masks and all necessary safety precautions will be employed. The office area used for the purpose of isolating a symptomatic staff person will be fully cleaned and disinfected once that individual leaves the area. RETURNING TO THE PROGRAM AFTER SYMPTOMS: If a student is dismissed from the De La Salle Vocational with COVID-related symptoms, if he is absent from the program due to such symptoms or if he develops symptoms during a period of self-quarantining, we will ask that he be tested that day or be taken to his doctor for a medical evaluation. The student can return to De La Salle Vocational if the COVID test is negative or if the doctor confirms that the symptoms were not due to COVID; documentation of either the negative test or a doctor’s note is required. If a student tests positive for COVID, he can return to De La Salle Vocational after remaining home for ten days following symptom onset AND is fever-free for seventy-two hours; or the student tests negative on a second COVID test (documentation of that test must be submitted to the program); or the student has a doctor’s note medically clearing him to resume classes. All city and state regulators will be informed of any COVID positive cases and related health concerns. If a staff person leaves De La Salle Vocational with symptoms, if (s)he is absent from work due to such symptoms, or if (s)he develops symptoms during a period of self-quarantining, we will ask that the (s)he be tested that day or see her/his doctor for a medical evaluation. The staff person can return to De La Salle Vocational if the COVID test is negative or if the doctor confirms that the symptoms were not due to COVID; documentation of either the negative test or a doctor’s note is required. If a staff person tests positive for COVID, (s)he can return to De La Salle Vocational after remaining home for ten days following symptom onset AND is fever-free for seventy-two hours; or the staff person tests negative on a second COVID test (documentation of that test must be submitted to the program); or the staff person has a doctor’s note medically clearing her/him to return to work. All city and state regulators will be informed of any COVID positive cases and related health concerns.

Other Considerations for Students and Staff

Requirement(s)	Strategies, Policies and Procedures
* Protecting students and staff at higher risk for severe illness * Use of face coverings (masks or face shields) by all staff * Use of face coverings (masks or face shields) by older students (as appropriate) Unique safety protocols for students with complex needs or other vulnerable individuals Strategic deployment of staff	Per the Order Requiring Universal Face Coverings announced by the Secretary of the Pennsylvania Department of Health on July 1, 2020 (and further clarified on July 6, 2020 regarding expectations of children and adults in school), all students and staff must wear masks/face coverings when present at De La Salle Vocational. We will maintain a supply of cloth and disposable masks for any student, staff or visitor who does not have her/his own. Two cloth face masks were given to each student prior to our opening (July 6, 2020). Face shields (plastic shields that cover the entire face from forehead to chin) will be provided in each of the vocational shops. Face shields also will be made available to any person (staff or student) for whom a cloth mask, which fully covers and conceals the mouth/nose, creates a safety concern.
