COVID-10 Resources
Yes, individuals, schools, communities, states, and the rest of the world are all experiencing the challenges and devastation of the novel coronavirus, COVID-19. The challenges specific to schools and childcare centers are that each state, region and community has different characteristic of the virus: symptoms, incubation, transmissions and death rates all vary. Because there is no national strategy, we are totally dependent on country and state-level decisions. Youth symptoms and transmissions are especially difficult to understand.
This is our environment as we open centers and schools for 2020-2021. Some schools are deciding to teach everyone using distance learning (some with technology, others not); some schools are creating small pods of students who stay with that same number of students and teacher(s) each day. And, of course, there is the hybrid solution--a combination of home and in-person learning. We understand that this is on a practical or feasible for children in an early childhood center. NRCCS-ECC has decided to remain open with restrictions and adjustments, in order to best serve our community and children.
The page is designed to provide you a plethora of independent resources. It is the parents own the decision as to whether they send their kids to school or not. We have asked for all parental input in developing our plan to conduct school for 2020-2021. One plan will not work for 100% of the parents, of that we are certain. Regardless of your decision, we are here to work with you to ensure your child's education and safety.
