COVID-19 Action Plan
The Hart District has the challenging task of designing a plan for a return to school that complies with state and county health orders while also balancing the desires of the community we serve. The Governing Board has the authority to make decisions with regard to some aspects of reopening plans, however, the scope of the decisions the Board can make is limited by the health orders. Current health orders do not allow for the “full reopening” of schools and the Board does not have the authority to ignore these mandates. (See Los Angeles County's ranking on the state metrics here and the current County numbers here)

1/11/21 - Pause on Small Cohorts and Athletic Conditioning **Updated 1/20/21
The Los Angeles County Department of Health strongly recommends that all schools in the county suspend in-person instruction services and activities during the month of January as much as possible. Based on this recommendation, the District has temporarily paused all small cohort instruction and athletic conditioning. The Governing Board will meet on 1/13/21 to consider the scope and duration of this pause.
UPDATE - At the 1/13/21 Special Meeting, the Governing Board voted to suspend small cohort instruction until February 8. Athletic conditioning will be temporarily paused with the issue to be re-evaluated at each successive Board meeting until conditioning may resume. The January 26 administration of the PSAT test has been cancelled and parents have been notified of other opportunities available to take the test.
UPDATE - At the 1/20/21 Regular Meeting, the Governing Board voted to resume athletic conditioning on 1/27 with voluntary participation and all safety protocols enforced.
1/4/21 - Vaccine Distribution in Los Angeles County
School staff has been designated for COVID-19 vaccinations in Phase 1B. For more information on vaccine distribution in Los Angeles County, click here.
12/14/20 - State Restrictions Delay the Transition to Blended Learning
State restrictions on the return to in-person instruction prohibit the transition to Blended Learning on January 11 as planned. Counties must meet the criteria for the Red Tier on the State's Blueprint for a Safer Economy for four weeks before schools can open for in-person instruction. The Board will consider potential dates for reopening based upon logical breaks in the academic calendar once Los Angeles County is eligible. Potential dates for reopening include February 8, March 22, and April 26. These dates can only be considered if the County determines that schools are eligible to reopen at that point.
10/30/20 - Spring Semester Decision Forms Due by November 13, 2020
In anticipation of a return to campus in a Blended Learning format for the spring semester, families are asked to choose between the following options: Blended Learning, Online Only, and Independent Study. Decision forms must be submitted for each student by November 13. More information on the three options can be found at the links below:

Student and Staff Safety
Will all teachers, staff, and students be required to wear masks?
Yes
Yes
Will students be allowed to remove their masks if they remain 6-feet apart while in the classroom?
According to the current County Health Order, masks must be worn inside all public spaces at all times.
Will students be allowed to remove their face covering at any time during the school day?
Students may only remove masks to eat or drink.
What type of masks will be allowed and/or provided for students?
The state is providing two cloth face coverings for every student. Schools will have paper/disposable face coverings available for students who forget their face covering. Students may wear their own personal cloth face coverings (i.e., masks, neck gaiters, etc.) if they choose. Bandanas or scarf ties will not be allowed.
Can partitions or face shields replace cloth face coverings?
According to the Department of Health, we are not allowed to replace face shields for cloth face coverings for students. Partitions can be used, but they are used when a 6-foot distance cannot be maintained. Face coverings must still be worn when face shields or partitions are used.
How will hand-washing and hand sanitizing be handled during the day?
Students will be required to use hand sanitizer when entering the school site each day. From that point, there will be many opportunities for hand-washing or sanitizing depending on the facilities available and the activity. Hand sanitizer stations will be provided as needed in common areas and classrooms without sink access.
Can we use hand-washing only rather than hand sanitizer?
While we prefer hand-washing for our students, some classrooms do not have easy access to sinks/water for this task. Use of hand sanitizer allows for schools to address the health concern appropriately.
Will there be daily symptom checks?
The Department of Health orders require daily symptom checks for students and staff. We will use a digital reporting system for daily symptom checks for students that will be completed by parents BEFORE bringing students to school.
The Department of Health orders require daily symptom checks for students and staff. We will use a digital reporting system for daily symptom checks for students that will be completed by parents BEFORE bringing students to school.
Has there been a determination as to the number of students per class period?
Our average classroom is 960 square feet. For each student to have a 6-foot social distance "bubble," we can accommodate a maximum of 26 students per classroom. The plan to divide each class into 2 cohorts results in a maximum of 19 students per class.
What are the considerations for changing classes for each period? What will be done to sanitize the desk during each change of class?
We are exploring ideas for dismissal of classes in such a way as to avoid crowds of students in the halls. Students will exit single file in a manner that will not result in crowding. We have a sub-committee currently exploring all aspects of sanitization. Our custodial teams have been trained in the disinfection techniques outlined by the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health. Additionally, we will have all students and staff sanitize hands prior to entering each classroom prior to touching any surface.
What will the procedure be for student’s use of the restroom during the day?
Students will have restroom availability when needed.
How often will restrooms be cleaned during the day?
We will follow the guidance provided by the Department of Health on the frequency of cleaning and the process. Staff will use appropriate cleaning materials and follow industry standards for appropriate cleaning / sanitizing disinfecting of restroom facilities.
We will follow the guidance provided by the Department of Health on the frequency of cleaning and the process. Staff will use appropriate cleaning materials and follow industry standards for appropriate cleaning / sanitizing disinfecting of restroom facilities.
Can students help wipe down desks, chairs, classrooms, etc.?
At this time, we are unable to include the help of students with cleaning. Several years ago many restrictions were placed on the types of cleaning materials that may be used in classroom, when students can be present, and preventing them from using them directly. Certainly, managing their own items and ensuring they do not share personal items with others is how students can support keeping things properly cleaned.
How will the A/C unit work in order to ensure that recycled air (possibly contaminated by the occupants inside the room) isn’t just blowing through the room?
The Hart District will ensure that each school’s HVAC system is in good working order. HVAC systems will be set to maximize indoor/outdoor air exchange unless outdoor conditions (recent fire, very high outside temperature, high pollen count, etc.) make this inappropriate. Portable, high-efficiency air cleaners will be installed, if feasible. Doors and windows will be kept open during the school day if feasible and if outdoor conditions make this appropriate. Air filters will be upgraded to the highest efficiency possible.
What will happen if/when a student tests positive for COVID-19?
If one student or staff tests positive, contact tracing will be initiated and those that have been exposed will be asked to quarantine for 14 days or until a negative test is received. If there is an outbreak (3 or more individuals testing positive within a 14 day period), the Department of Health will be notified and provide guidance.
Populations with Special Needs
Will students with Individualized Education Plans continue to receive special services support if they choose the Online program?
Students with IEPs have the opportunity to select the exclusive Online option or a Blended Learning option. The basic framework is the same, but we have a sub-committee of specialists working together to create additional options to lay on top of the basic framework for special populations. We want to take the time we have available to create the best possible options for educating your children. We will be sending communication directly to you with the specific implementation options for your children.

The format of those services will conform to the overall format of the program. Specific minutes and activities will be provided during the IEP process.
Will 504 plans be continued?
Yes, 504 plans will be accommodated.
Will English Learner supports be available in both formats?
English Learner supports will be provided in the Blended and Online formats. Bilingual instructional assistants will continue to support students and teachers
Student Meal Service During Fully Online Instruction

Athletics and Extracurriculars
Decisions about athletics and extracurriculars are guided by the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health Reopening Protocols for K-12 Schools and the California Interscholastic Federation (CIF).
Can sports teams meet/practice during the Full Online Learning period?
Sports teams are currently meeting for conditioning only. Los Angeles County Department of Public Health guidelines apply. All activities are being held outdoors in small, five-to-ten person pods with social distancing of eight feet or more during strenuous activity and frequent hand washing or sanitizing. Cloth face coverings must be worn by all when not engaged in a conditioning exercise. No visitors or spectators are allowed.
Participation is voluntary for all athletes, coaches and staff. Non-participation will not have a negative impact on the student athlete or staff member in any way. All who take part will be asked to sign a form acknowledging they are there voluntarily, and will need to provide daily self-certification screenings.
Will high school sports teams be allowed to play in 2020/21?
On July 20, the CIF State and Southern Section released the high school athletics plan for the 2020/21 school year. In essence, the three seasons of athletics (fall, winter, spring) have been condensed into two seasons (fall, spring) with those sports listed as fall beginning competition this December and January. For the complete statement and information regarding when each sport would be starting competition, please click here.
*Due to increased case rates throughout the entire CIF Southern Section, fall sports pre-season competition has been cancelled. We are hopeful that league competition will be able to proceed in January.
When will tryouts for sports teams begin?
Please contact your school site if your student is interested in participating in a sport.
Where do I turn in my child's athletic paperwork?
Students should turn their athletic paperwork in to their coaches.
COVID-19 Outbreaks and Returning to Normal
Will the District require all staff and students to be tested for COVID-19 before returning to school?
Not at this time. Students and/or staff who show symptoms will follow the appropriate protocols for testing, self-isolation, etc. Anyone who feels they have symptoms of COVID-19 should remain at home and contact their health care provider.
Not at this time. Students and/or staff who show symptoms will follow the appropriate protocols for testing, self-isolation, etc. Anyone who feels they have symptoms of COVID-19 should remain at home and contact their health care provider.
What is the protocol if a teacher/staff/student tests positive for COVID-19?
The District will follow all protocols established by the Department of Health. Each situation will be handled according to the person exposed, the amount of time of exposure, and the distance between themselves and the potentially infected person. We will thoroughly clean the classroom/school following suspected or confirmed cases of COVID-19.
Will we be notified each time a student, staff, or teacher tests positive for COVID-19?
Privacy laws do not allow us to notify the community of individuals (staff or students) who test positive. If there is an exposure concern, however, we will provide the appropriate notifications to the Health Department officials and to the affected families as we do with other exposure issues. Additionally, the Hart District has a COVID-19 Dashboard here that is updated regularly to reflect known positive cases on campuses within the last 14 calendar days.
When will schools return to the traditional 5 days per week model?
Schools will return to the traditional model when the county reaches Stage 4 in the recovery plan and restrictions are released by the Department of Health.
Staff Information
What does Apex provide with regards to courses and staff support?
The Apex platform has been adopted District-wide to provide teachers and students with an additional educational resource support tool for teaching in the Online and Blended Learning programs. The platform is not intended to replace currently adopted curriculum, but rather to support the scaffolding of lesson development and classroom integration. While the Apex platform can be utilized as a "stand-alone" asynchronous course, the goal is to allow the system to provide structure, organization, and enhancement to your scheduled synchronous learning activities with students.
Efforts moving forward will be centered on providing all staff with an abundance of professional development and training with regards to the functionality and usefulness of the Apex program. The District is developing a multi-phase schedule to facilitate teacher preparation ultimately leading to the primary objective of returning to the academic setting full-time.
