HEALTH & SAFETY
Our top priority at Discovery is the health and safety of our students and community. We regularly review our campus safety protocol, including the management of our facility to prevent exposure to mosquito borne illnesses. Please see below for relevant details:
Mosquito control
We have taken measures to identify and remove sources of standing water that can serve as mosquito breeding sites and will monitor these closely. We are also working with our pest control provider to maintain monthly treatments of all grounds. We have also installed Insect Zappers around campus that cover a 1.5 acre area.
If additional protection for your child is desired, we recommend that parents spray their children thoroughly with insect repellent before school. Insect repellent may also be sent to school for your child, and should be clearly labeled with the student's name.
