COVID-19 Safety

We want to assure you that safety is our #1 priority. In addition to following the CDC and FSSA guidelines, we have enhanced our already high standards of education, care, illness screening, food safety, hygiene, disinfecting, air purification and sanitation to include the following:

  • Best on the market air purification and sanitation system
  • Top of the line thermal body temperature cameras
  • Professional grade botanical disinfectant solution. The entire building, outdoor equipment, toys, and materials are sprayed daily.
  • Use of no touch thermometers to measure every child, staff member, and parent that enters the buildings.
  • We have taken further steps in our hand-washing and sanitation procedures.
  • Teachers conduct a deep clean twice a day within their classrooms
  • Asking staff members and/or children who may be sick to follow CDC recommendations and consult with their doctor before returning
  • Teachers monitoring children in the classroom for signs of illness
  • All teachers and staff wear face masks

Air Purification & Sanitation System

The air purification and sanitation system uses UV light to destroy airborne particles such as dust, pollen, dander, and microbes. It has proven to be highly effective in creating a cleaner environment without the use of harmful chemicals. Below are some highlights of the system:

  • Kills up to 99% of bacteria, viruses, and microbial growth
  • Decreases the frequency of asthma and allergy symptoms by eliminating harmful triggers
  • Reduces particles that are proven to cause illness such as bacteria and viruses
  • Helps to avoid illness and allows for easier breathing
  • Reduces sneeze germs by 99% in the time a sneeze can reach three feet

Thermal Body Scanners

At ABCs and 123s, we are taking every precaution we can to keep our schools open safely. The thermal body scanners are another measure to safeguard families, staff, and teachers who are entering the schools each day. These allow for efficient drop off and pick up procedures while adhering to social distancing guidelines. These cameras are proven to be more accurate than manual thermometers. Below are some highlights regarding the thermal body scanners:

  • More accurate than handheld thermometers
  • Alarm will sound if a person's temperature is above a certain threshold
  • Completely contactless to reduce the risk of spreading illness
  • Includes facial mask detection and alarms
  • Response time is 30 milliseconds so body temperatures are known as soon as the person enters the building
