Current through Register Vol. 50, No. 6, June 20, 2024
A. This
				  Chapter provides minimum health and safety standards regarding the reopening of
				  school facilities for the 2020-2021 school year in response to the coronavirus
				  disease (COVID-19) pandemic in order to ensure that students, faculty, staff,
				  and others on school property are protected to the maximum extent possible and
				  practical. These minimum standards regarding the reopening of schools for the
				  2021-2021 school year expire on June 30, 2021. Any future requirements for
				  schools related to a statewide pandemic will be communicated as
				  needed.
B. The requirements
				  contained within this Subchapter were developed by the LDE in coordination with
				  the LDH using guidance provided by the Centers for Disease Control (CDC)
				  regarding school settings, defined as a setting in which educational services
				  are provided to children. As research and information about COVID-19 is
				  updated, or if the LDH or CDC revise guidance regarding school settings, the
				  LDE will review the standards contained within this Subchapter and, as
				  appropriate and necessary, propose revisions of this Subchapter to
				  BESE.
C. While the requirements
				  outlined in this Subchapter are designed to mitigate the spread of COVID-19 and
				  to create a safe and healthy environment for students, faculty, staff, and
				  others on school property, no requirement or plan guarantees that individuals
				  will not contract COVID-19.
D. By
				  executive proclamation, the governor establishes the statewide phase(s) of
				  reopening (phase 1, phase 2, or phase 3). If the local governing authority of a
				  parish or other municipality has established a more restrictive phase of
				  reopening, the LEA located within that parish or municipality must conform to
				  the more restrictive requirements.
1.
				  Subsequent to the reopening of school facilities for the 2020-2021 school year
				  and in coordination with requirements outlined in 168 JBE 2020, LEAs may
				  continue to follow the Phase 3 minimum requirements for reopening school
				  facilities as set forth in this Chapter.
