Deep cleaning and disinfecting is ongoing at all school buildings. Our head custodians, along with our entire custodial staff, are using a multi surface cleaner to thoroughly clean all surfaces. We then use a hospital grade disinfectant assisting us in killing all germs. Complementing this cleaning procedure we use UV light banks to eradicate all surfaces and follow that with a Protexus electrostatic sanitizing sprayer. Once classrooms have been completed, they are sealed off with a piece of tape and recorded that it’s been done. All public touch points are being sanitized daily as well. We thank all who have come together to support our cleaning and sanitizing efforts.
