Message from Administration

Dear Bateman family,

 

We hope everyone is excited as we are to have all of our students come back to school tomorrow!  Our teachers have been working hard to prepare their rooms and plan with their grade level teams for a great start of the school year.  So many of them are even working this weekend to make sure everything is perfect for their return.  That’s dedication! Hats off to all of our teachers and staff who have gone above and beyond to make the first day for students...the best ever! 

 

We would like to review a few procedures and protocols we had mentioned in previous communications that we feel are important before the start of school day. Please review the CPS Parent and Staff Fall Opening Guidance in detail, as well as the user-friendly version of Bateman Protocols & Procedures presentation.

Safety Protocols

The district communicated with families earlier this week directly about the health and safety protocols. Click here to review the full document. A few important highlights:

 

1.    Face Coverings: Cloth face coverings must be worn at all times when indoors, regardless of vaccination status.

2.    Reporting COVID Cases: The best way the school can efficiently and effectively respond to COVID cases is if they are reported to the CPS COVID Self Report site. Once a case is reported the CPS Contact Tracing team will notify the school if quarantine, beyond the student/staff member who has COVID, is required.

3.    Remote Learning: Remote learning is implemented for students in quarantine once the Contact Tracing department confirms the student has a COVID positive result. The department will communicate with the family and school the length of quarantine required. Remote learning is not for use in cases of sickness unless quarantine is due to a COVID positive test.

4.    Health Screening: Parents and guardians will be required to submit a quarterly attestation form in which they agree to perform a daily health check of their student before sending them to school. The first attestation form is due on Friday. It will be going home with your child Monday in their backpacks. Click here to review the form. The big theme: if your child is sick, please do not send them to school. Once at school if they have COVID-19 symptoms they will be required to isolate in the Care Room and then follow additional procedures for return to school.

5.    Care Room: We will have a Care Room where students can be safely isolated if they develop COVID-19 symptoms during the course of the school day. Parents/guardians will be notified if their child is in the Care Room to be picked up. The Care Room is the Field House - West.

6.    COVID Testing: Students may participate in COVID Testing on site. The logistics of how that will occur are still being developed by the district. Once we receive that guidance, we will be in touch. In the meantime, you should have received an email with a link to sign up to participate in COVID testing.  


Arrival and Dismissal

Similar to last year, we will have designated grade level entry. The school playground is closed for the gathering of parents and students before arrival and dismissal time. Please see below for arrival times and locations. Students are to have their mask on once they enter on the school grounds.

Arrival and Dismissal Doors: 

  • PK: Door #4 on Richmond by Playground / Room 102: Door #2

  • Kindergarten: Door 3 on Richmond

  • 1st  Grade: Door 1 on Richmond 

  • 2nd Grade: Door 22 by Parking Lot - North End

  • 3rd - 5th: Door 5 by the Playground (Richmond Side)

  • 6th - 8th: Door 6 by the Playground (Sacramento Side)

We look forward to seeing everyone tomorrow!  

All the best,

Georgia Davos & Kate Kloepper
