Masks

Beginning March 12, masks will become optional in our school buildings and buses. Staff and students will have the choice to wear a mask at school, with the expectation that others’ choices will be respected.  

Physical Distancing

Classrooms have been arranged to maximize physical distancing between students, while still ensuring all children have access to a comprehensive, full-day experience. Students are distanced at least three feet apart in classrooms and six feet apart in common areas of the school wherever possible.

Larger gatherings of students in one location (e.g. assemblies) will be moved outdoors or reduced in size to ensure a safe, physically distanced setting can be maintained.

Students should attempt to maintain distancing to the greatest degree possible during passing time, while on the bus, while eating, and in common areas.

Hand Washing & Hygiene 

Teachers will communicate, educate, and reinforce appropriate hygiene, frequent handwashing and social distancing practices in ways that are developmentally appropriate for students. Hand sanitizer will be available if hand washing is not possible. 

Health Screening 

Students and staff must stay home when sick, or if they’ve been potentially exposed to COVID, or if they’re waiting for COVID test results. Students/families are expected to check for symptoms daily at home before coming to school. Parent Attestation forms are no longer required. 

Cleaning Protocols

Custodians will perform daily cleaning/sanitizing of bathrooms, fixtures, office counters, and entryway touch surfaces following the typical morning visitor traffic. Throughout the day, custodians will sanitize other identified/prioritized common touch surfaces such as door push plates, door handles, sinks, water fountains, hand railings, etc.  

COVID Testing

With parental consent, PSD can provide COVID testing for students and staff as part of our layered prevention and response strategy. Visit the district's COVID Testing Information Page or contact your school nurse for more information.

Vaccinations 

Vaccinations continue to be an important weapon in the fight against COVID-19. The Pfizer vaccine is FDA-approved for everyone 16 years of age and older, and is authorized for emergency use for anyone 5-15 years old. The Moderna and Johnson & Johnson vaccines are approved for everyone 18 years of age and older. Students are not required to get the COVID-19 vaccine to attend school in-person. However, vaccinated students will not have to quarantine if exposed to the virus unless they show symptoms. 

In-Person Learning:

If you are a new student, or are returning from another district, you can now register your student online.

If you do not have access to a computer, please visit your child's school. School buildings will open the week of August 16.

Virtual Learning:

Pasco School District is excited to offer three virtual learning opportunities for students for the 2021-22 school year: The Pasco Parent Partnership (P³) program, iPAL (Internet Pasco Academy of Learning), and PIXeL (Pasco Innovative Experiences and e-Learning) Academy. 

You can find more information about each program HERE: www.psd1.org/virtual

Parents please check with health care providers to be sure your student is fully immunized and ready for school. Immunization boosters are typically required for entry into preschool, kindergarten and 6th grade. Also, if students have health conditions that require medication at school, care planning or accommodations, we encourage these families to contact your school’s nurse during the week before school starts. Students who have life threatening health conditions are required by Washington state law to meet with the nurse, have either medication or treatment order signed by health care provider and an emergency plan in place PRIOR to attending school. These families are encouraged to contact their school’s nurse as soon as possible the week before the first day of school. A reminder to parents: medication orders must be signed by both parent and health care provider and renewed every school year. Please download, print and fill out the medication administration permission form and return it to your child's school.

You can find more information and other medical treatment related forms on our Health Services webpage.
