Stage Explanations

  • If students, parents, or siblings are ill stay home and switch to online meetings

    If local school districts, community colleges, or other places for scheduled meetings are closed due to coronavirus the event will meet online if possible, or be canceled.

    Janitorial changes to cleaning duties to emphasize classroom disinfecting

    Surfaces or objects (such as desktops, computers, mats, etc) commonly touched by students or other surfaces should be cleaned at least daily. Surfaces or objects soiled with blood or other body fluids should be cleaned and disinfected using gloves and any other precautions needed to avoid coming into contact with the fluid. Remove the spill, then clean and disinfect the surface. 

  • Continue with employees/families staying home if ill and conduct online visits

    Cancel all large gatherings

    Cancel travel to impacted areas- if a school district, community college, or other meeting area is closed we will close our student centers, and meet online.  

    An impacted area is when a school that is in close proximity to a student center is closed for COVID-19 contamination and cleaning.  Oregon Health Authority is using counties to notify the public where confirmed cases are. We will use counties to make our determinations of impacted areas.  Any county with two or more confirmed cases will be considered an impacted area.

    We will only re-open a center after a thorough cleaning following OHA and CDC guidelines.

    School operations will go fully virtual in impacted areas.  

  • All school business in impacted areas is conducted virtually

    Student centers closed in impacted areas

    Staff are required to say-‘no comment’ for media responses

    If a student has a confirmed case of COVID-19, will not use personally identifiable information to inform the school community of potential exposure to ensure we do not breach confidentiality or create stigma or discrimination. 

    BCS will work with the local public health department to respond appropriately.

    Employees who appear to have acute respiratory illness symptoms upon arrival to work or become sick during the day should be separated from other employees and be sent home immediately.

    Emphasize staying home when sick, respiratory etiquette and hand hygiene by all employees.

    Employees who are well but who have a sick family member at home with COVID-19 should notify their supervisor and refer to CDC guidance for how to conduct a risk assessment of their potential exposure and contact their local public health department.

    If an employee is confirmed to have COVID-19 infection, employers should inform fellow employees of their possible exposure to COVID-19 in the workplace but maintain confidentiality as required by the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Employees exposed to a co-worker with confirmed COVID-19 infection should refer to CDC guidance for how to conduct a risk assessment and contact their local public health department.
