COVID-19 Resources & Information

Effective June 15, 2021 the State of Emergency has come to an end and EEC no longer requires us to adhere to the Interim Regulations and Playbook guidance issued during the pandemic.  However due to the recent spike in cases, we will be reinstating our Mask Use Policy for children and all adults indoors effective September 7, 2021. We have revised our Health and Safety Procedures and information on this can be found under the Enrollment tab as form #11 on the list of enrollment forms. Please feel free to reach out to us for more details.  

 

We have been gifted Needlepoint Bipolar Ionization Units for each classroom in the school by a Joyful Noises family. These units have been proven to inactivate 99.4% of SARS-CoV-2 pathogens and 90.0% of Coronavirus pathogens. These units also are known to reduce airborne particulates, reduce airborne allergens and

neutralize odors. To learn more about the units, watch this video.  

 

We use a hospital-grade disinfectant spray proven effective in combating these viruses. Each day our cleaning occurs in the morning, midday and at night, and as needed in all high touch areas. Children and staff wash hands multiple times daily as well as use hand sanitizer when not able to get to a sink. 

In accordance with the Department of Early Education and Care guidelines, we have also updated our policies to include a comprehensive pandemic, epidemic and school closure plan. 

Additionally, we encourage you to read and use the following resources at home to help your children through this sensitive time.
