Discussion:
Mr. Kobza explained the selection of sanitizer that will be used on buses, in classrooms, etc. as well as cleaning protocols.
Discussion was held on face masks and suggested quarantine protocol. Options for required versus optional face masks were discussed as well as requirement with option for parental opt out. Social distancing was also discussed. Mr. Kobza asked for input from the board on masks. Board members questioned the effectiveness of masks when they will not be wearing them during athletics, music classes, etc. Board consensus was to begin the year as highly recommended but not required and move to required if cases develop within our school district. Daily health checks will be performed with a touchless thermometer. The board suggested possibly administering temperature checks twice daily.

He shared plans for breakfast and lunch meal service. Evolving plans for technology, cleaning practices, playground access, instruction, staffing, and transportation were discussed.
