Covid Protocols
Protocols are still the same for this week until further notice:
Masks are required on all AISD facilities - please help us keep our staff and students safe - wear your mask at all times on campus.
During Drop Off
During Pick Up
- Please stay in your car during drop-off and pick-up - it helps keep everyone safe - from traffic and from spreading germs. Students should exit to the passenger's side of the car and our staff is here to help.
- Return to one-way clockwise traffic in hallways during the day (clockwise with the staff lounge being 12 o’clock, 300 wing being 6 o’clock)
- Classrooms have air purifiers in them
Recess will resume to zoned area rotations with classes not mixing
Zone A: Inside the Track
Zone B: Playground
Zone C: Under the BB court (when Coach Maines isn’t using it)
Zone D: Little Playground (when Pk3 & Pk4 aren’t using it)
- All plexiglass dividers in the classrooms must be placed back-up - no exceptions
Assigned seating in cafeteria, with plexiglass dividers, and students sitting every other seat
Students will have the option to eat outside daily when weather appropriate - >65 degrees
52 kids can eat outside at any given time - with our lunchroom rotation, this is manageable for us. This allows for 4 students per table.
If a student doesn't want to or can't eat outside (allergies/temperature), indoor dining is still an option - including plexiglass and socially distant dining.
Remember - Cunningham is a Covid Testing Hub for Austin ISD Staff & Students. If you would like for your student to be tested, please fill out this form. The passcode is AISDTEST.
