The start of the 2020 school year is right around the corner. With the decision made to open schools Tues., Sept. 8, Dallas ISD is preparing to welcome staff to the new normal of an unprecedented school year. Current plans are to open schools with both in-person and remote learning options. COVID-19 is prompting feelings of uncertainty and anxiety in some employees who have questions about the safe reopening of schools.
The district is holding three virtual information sessions to answer those questions and to reassure staff that the safety of staff and students is the district’s top priority. The goal is to share information about the variety of protective measures the district is taking to keep everyone healthy.
Separate sessions are scheduled for the staffs of the Operations Division, campuses and central offices. The meetings will feature information about:
- personal protective equipment (PPE)
- reentry safety measures
- cleaning and sanitizing protocols
- remote work and employee leaves
- options for classroom configuration
- class scheduling options, and
- testing and contact tracing in the event of positive COVID cases
Staff will also be able to ask questions, and sessions will be recorded for later viewing.
All sessions will be held via Zoom webinar. Registration links for the campus and central staff meetings are listed below.
