We were told drop off will be rolling so they we won’t necessarily start right at 9 (staff)

The way it was explained to us was that it would be rolling, but starting earlier so the day would still start on time. That’s why they’ll have holding points for students at arrival, so teachers don’t have their morning prep time interrupted when kids start showing up a half hour before school starts.

So what time will the kids not in person/full time DL that day start?

Of course not, we'll be lucky if the academic day begins by 9:30 each day. So much for this not impacting actual academic time. Glad those Open Schools Now people only care about having their kids in a building, and not actually getting an education.

The education pretty much sucks, though.

um- its not open schools now that is advocating for the theater of temperature checks as people enter the buildings.

If APS can pull this off this is great, but I have little faith in them. It will save so much time.

This is what our private school does. I fill it out each morning before school and take his temp at home. No temp check at school-he just walks in.

DP. APS will still be doing temp checks, but parents will do the rest of the screening at home through an app. If you’re just doing temp checks and you buy enough forehead thermometers, that process can be fast.

I'm op and am elated! I want to know if I will need to reschedule a recurring morning meeting that takes place on my kids in person day. I'm really looking forward to having my early elementary kid in school.

Realistically, if they’re going to make parents stay, they’re going to need a whole lot of thermometers to make this go quickly. Otherwise, they’ll have to get rid of drop-off lanes (if you don’t have a half dozen staff members out here, each with their own thermometer, to scan kids as they get out of cars, it just won’t be feasible to do car drop-offs). And if you get rid of drop-off lanes, you will have dozens of additional people crowding toward the doors every morning, which will make it harder for the school to enforce social distancing.

Thank you, this is great!

I know parents must stay until the child passes health screening. Has your school shared any other info on how long health screening might take, for families who walk or drive?
