For those campuses where we have learning in-person, students will go outside for recess in shifts. Under COVID-19-related restrictions designed to minimize interaction between learning groups, students may only be permitted to use certain areas of the playgrounds. The use of play structures may also be limited based on requirements from authorities and/or by the ability to disinfect between use. During inclement weather, students will have indoor recess. Our indoor recess protocols also limit interaction between groups.
When and where feasible, staff will engage students in physical education activities in open and/or outdoor spaces. Regardless of the location of recess and physical education, students must continue to respect physical distancing guidelines and will not be permitted to use common/shared material unless it is safe to do so. Students will be required to wash hands thoroughly after physical education and recess.
