We want all who come to Belmont to be healthy and well. For this purpose, we closely watch public health news, including developing news about COVID-19, and have adopted the following procedures:

 

Clean and Safe            

• Regularly disinfect all frequently-used surfaces.

• Ventilate the building with fresh air each day.

• Keep hand sanitizer available in each room.

• Remind students to practice good hygiene (i.e., wash hands, always cover coughs & sneezes).

• Ask all who come to campus to observe the Health and Wellness guidelines.

​

Illness

If a student becomes ill during school:

• The school will notify parents and arrange for pick-up as soon as possible.

• The student will wait in the office where there is a bed where they may more comfortably wait.

• After a student has used the office bed, the bedding will be changed and cleaned, and surfaces will be disinfected.

• After school hours, the school will be aired out and frequently-used surfaces disinfected, per the daily cleaning.

​

Returning to Campus

• Anyone who has had COVID-like symptoms (fever above 100°, persistent cough, shortness of breath, or new loss of taste) should be symptom-free a full 72 hours (i.e., 3 days) before returning to campus.

• Anyone who has had other symptoms such as vomiting, diarrhea, or pinkeye should be symptom-free for 24 hours (i.e., 2 days) before returning to campus.
