The United States Department of Education has issued a request for information on how schools, colleges and universities, and early education providers are reopening, operating safely and supporting students during the COVID-19 pandemic. The information gathered will inform ED’s Safer Schools and Campuses Best Practices Clearinghouse, a website under development that will highlight lessons learned from the field and provide resources for meeting student, teacher, faculty and staff needs.
The request for information is focused on three topics:
- Safe and healthy environments. Here, ED is looking for institutional approaches to implementing the CDC’s recommended COVID mitigation strategies and preparing for and sustaining in-person operations safely. This includes, for example, campus protocols for distancing, mask wearing, hand-washing stations, maximum classroom occupancy, etc., as well as managing testing and vaccination sites and supporting students both on and off campus who are in isolation/quarantine.
