DAY IN THE LIFE OF THE SJHS "FACE-TO-FACE" STUDENT ARJUN'S PARENTS HAVE SELECTED TO HAVE ARJUN RIDE THE BUS FOR THE YEAR. ARJUN PUTS ON HIS MASK AS HE ENTERS THE BUILDING ENTERING AND SQUEEZES A FEW PUMPS OF HAND SANITIZER STATIONED RIGHT AT THE ENTRANCE. ARJUN ALSO WALKS THROUGH AN ELECTRONIC TEMPERATURE READING DEVICE TO ENSURE THAT HIS AND ALL OTHER STUDENTS' TEMPERATURES ARE BELOW 100 DEGREES FAHRENHEIT. SCHOOL ARJUN FOLLOWS THE ARROWS CLEARLY MARKED ON THE FLOORS OF SJHS TO GUIDE HIM TOWARDS THE GRAB-N-GO BREAKFAST KIOSK AND/OR TOWARDS HIS FIRST BELL TEACHER'S CLASSROOM WHILE MAINTAINING SOCIAL DISTANCE. ARJUN WILL KEEP ALL BELONGINGS WITH HIM AND WILL NOT BE UTILIZING A LOCKER. CLASSROOMS WILL BE OPENED BY TEACHERS BEGINNING AT 7:52 AM. ALL STUDENTS ARE EXPECTED TO CONTINUE TO WEAR THEIR FACE COVERINGS AND STAY SOCIALLY DISTANT. WHEN ARJUN ARRIVES IN HIS FIRST BELL CLASS, HE WILL SIT IN A SOCIALLY DISTANT ASSIGNED SEAT APART FROM OTHERS WAITING FOR THE BELL TO RING. ATTENDANCE IS TAKEN AT THE BEGINNING OF EACH BELL. IN HIS 45 MINUTE CLASS, ARJUN WILL ADHERE TO THE SAME EXPECTATIONS AND CLASS DEADLINES AS THE VIRTUAL LEARNING EXPERIENCE. FOR MASTERY LEARNING, ARJUN WILL ENGAGE IN DIRECT INSTRUCTION FROM HIS TEACHER, WHOLE GROUP DISCUSSION, SMALL GROUP DISCUSSION THROUGH MONITORED BREAKOUT ROOMS, AND INDEPENDENT WORK TIME. IF ARJUN HAS AN ROUTINES IEP, SERVICES WILL BE PROVIDED IN THE CLASSROOM TO THE SAFEST EXTENT POSSIBLE. SMALL GROUP SUPPORT MAY BE PROVIDED VIRUTALLY OR WITHIN A NEARBY CLASSROOM. AFTER EACH CLASS, ALL TOUCHABLE SURFACES WILL BE SANITIZED BEFORE THE NEXT BELL. SOCIAL DISTANCING AND MASK-WEARING WILL BE MAINTAINED DURING CLASS TIME. AS THE BELL RINGS, ARJUN HAS 8 MINUTES TO PROCEED TO HIS NEXT PERIOD IN AN EFFORT TO MAINTAIN SOCIAL DISTANCING PROTOCOLS. HALLWAY EVERY HALLWAY WILL BE ONE-WAY WITH MARKINGS DICATING THE DIRECTION THAT IS TO BE FOLLOWED DURING TRANSIT. DURING THIS TIME, IF ARJUN NEEDS TO UTILIZE THE RESTROOM, THE SAME SOCIALLY DISTANT PROTOCOLS WILL BE REQUIRED AND CONGREGATION IS NOT PERMITTED. ROUTINES ADMINISTRATION AND STAFF WILL BE PRESENT BETWEEN ALL BELL CHANGES TO MONITOR PROTOCOLS. AT ARJUN'S ASSIGNED RECESS AND LUNCH TIME, ARJUN'S TEACHER WILL ESCORT HIM TO THE CAFETERIA WHILE WEARING A MASK. ARJUN WILL WASH HIS HANDS AT ONE OF THE HANDWASHING STATIONS AVAILABLE. IF ARJUN PRE-ORDERED A LUNCH, HE WILL ENTER THE CAFETERIA LUNCH AND PICK UP HIS MEAL AT A DESIGNATED PICK-UP STATION BEFORE SITTING AT A TABLE IN AN ASSIGNED SOCIALLY DISTANT SEAT, WHERE HE WILL ENJOY LUNCH WITH HIS FRIENDS. THE LUNCH ROOM WILL BE DISINFECTED PRIOR TO AND AFTER EACH LUNCH PERIOD BY CUSTODIANS AND ADMINISTRATORS. TABLES ARE DISMISSED TO RECESS INDIVIDUALLY TO FOLLOW SOCIAL DISTANCING GUIDELINES. AT RECESS ARJUN MAY TALK WITH FRIENDS WHILE MAINTAINING SOCIAL DISTANCING. ARJUN WILL WASH HIS HANDS BEFORE RETURNING TO CLASS. DISMISSAL WILL TAKE PLACE IN PHASES FOR BUS RIDERS, WALKERS, AND CAR RIDERS IN ORDER TO ADHERE TO SOCIAL DISTANCING PROTOCOLS. SCHOOL IF ARJUN IS PARTICIPATING IN AN APPROVED EXTRACURRICULAR ACTIVITY OR ACADEMIC SUPPORT PROGRAM, HE IS EXPECTED TO REPORT TO THE APPROVED LOCATION IMMEDIATELY, WHERE SOCIAL DISTANCING IS MONITORED.
