COVID-19 Safety for Schools: Classroom Considerations
Brought to you by the NDSC and EAPC Architects Engineers
NDSC Members & Non-Members: FREE
Classroom safety, including the safety of teachers and students, is one of the biggest concerns of reopening North Dakota schools. During this free webinar, gain the knowledge and tools to help you safely return to school this fall.
First, learn how to perform a comprehensive hazard assessment of your classroom utilizing the ND Department of Health’s COVID-19 school assessment worksheet. We’ll discuss how to mitigate exposure risk for both teachers and students. Topics will include:
• Classroom layout and cleaning suggestions
• Handling shared devices and equipment
• Employee and student exposure levels and reporting procedures
• Student movement guidelines
You’ll also gain a broader understanding of COVID-19 properties, pandemic best practices relating to personal hygiene and masks, and behavioral health for both teachers and students.
Utilizing Virtual Reality, EAPC Architects Engineers will walk attendees through a school rendering to help show what new mitigation measures could actually look like in their school. This will include hallway traffic patterns; classroom seating layouts; cafeteria mitigation options and more.
We’ll end the course with a live Q&A session where you’ll receive additional advice and insights from behavioral health, medical, industrial cleaning, safety, HVAC, and engineering/architectural professionals. Representatives from the ND Department of Public Instruction and the ND Department of Health will also be available for questions.
The NDSC developed this course in partnership with the ND Department of Public Instruction, ND Department of Health, ND Council of Educational Leaders, EAPC Architects Engineers, ND School Boards Association, ND United, NuVation Health Services, ND Small Organized Schools and Sanford OccMed.
