The director of public health, Van Do-Reynoso, announced Tuesday that Santa Barbara County completed the K-6 schools reopening waiver programs and is organizing for districts to download more information.
Because the county is on the state’s watch list for new coronavirus cases, schools can offer distance education if they get in-person course waivers.
County police ask schools to submit plans for campus cleanliness, facial blankets, student and symptom detection, physical distance, normal tests, touch tracking when a case is shown, and triggers to return to distance learning, Do-Reynoso told the supervisory governing board Tuesday.
The reopening requires “cohort” plans, which are described as academics “in small, solid teams with constant members that remain in combination for all activities (teaching, lunch, recreation)”.
When asked about the features to perform the required checks, Do-Reynoso said the 3 county state-sponsored control sites would be held for schools, and that the Department of Public Health would allocate two hours a day from its own checkpoints to the school. Neighborhoods.
“I checked and have capacity in our county, especially at optumServe sites (managed through the state),” he said. “Well, Buellton, we’re seeing a constant availability of a hundred spaces depending on the day, so it should be held for all school districts.”

Welcome to Noozhawk Ask, a new feature where you ask questions, help noozhawk research and work with us to locate the answers.
Here’s how it works: you share your questions with us in the nearby area. In some cases, we may paint with you to locate the answers. In others, we may ask you to vote on your most productive options to help us narrow the reach. And let’s ask for feedback on an express factor or topic.
We also hope to paint with the reader who asked the winning questions to locate the answer together. The purpose of Noozhawk is to answer questions from a position of interest and openness, and we believe that transparent collaboration is the key to achieving this.
The effects of our survey will be here in this Noozhawk application section. Once or twice a month, we plan to review what has been asked and answered.
