Some information about what we are working on for the future
12/1/2020
As a district, KPBSD is working on a SMART START plan that goes beyond the original plan submitted last August. We have learned a lot since then and we will be presenting a new plan to the KPBSD Board on December 7th, 2020. I invite you to tune in to the meeting for details.
Some of the things I want you to be learning more about are about how we will be creating an even safer atmosphere for learning. I invite you to research with me the addition to our air circulation system (HVAC), it is called an O2 Prime system. I will paste a link to a commercial flyer for an O2 Prime system so you can see how it works. http://o2primesolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/How-Ionization-Works-V3-no-hyphens.pdf
We also have a spray system for all of our "high-touch" surfaces. Custodial staff are sanitizing high touch areas using electrostatic sprayers dispensing HOCL to eliminate the virus in the facility.
Basically what I am sharing with you is how we making the school the safest place possible. This along with following the state mandates on social distancing and masks, is how we hope to reach our goal of zero transmit of the COVID 19 at school.
I just wanted to share this with you so you would have the information you need to make the decision on sending students back to school when that option becomes available again.
Please tell the kids that I miss seeing them.
Sincerely,
Doug Hayman
