Safe Return to In-Person Instruction and Continuity of Services Plan

2021-2022

PREFACE: All Ohio schools closed for the remainder of the school calendar beginning on March 16, 2020, by order of the Governor and the Ohio Department of Health Director in response to the COVID 19 pandemic. On July 2, 2020, Governor DeWine released the Reset & Restart Planning Guide for Schools and this Plan was created with those recommendations in mind. This plan has been developed in compliance with the American Rescue Plan: Elementary and Secondary School

Emergency Relief Fund (ARP ESSER).

These general principles will continue to guide Fostoria City Schools as we move forward with reopening:

1. Fostoria City Schools will implement safety protocols as realistically as possible.

2. Fostoria City Schools will work closely with the Seneca County Health Department to promote safety.

3. Fostoria City Schools students and personnel are expected to self-monitor daily through wellness checks including taking their own temperature before reporting to school. Those experiencing a temperature above 100F or experiencing other symptoms are asked to remain at home. Additional health monitoring at school may occur due to an increased risk of COVID-19 in our community.

4. Fostoria City Schools will be transparent with all stakeholders that some level of risk will always be present when children and school district employees occupy school district facilities.

5. Fostoria City Schools is planning to maintain their previously approved school calendar for the 2021-2022 school year.

These principles will be implemented throughout all school facilities within the Fostoria City School district:
