Physical Distancing
The WA DOH provides guidance for schools that addresses distancing: “Maintaining six feet of distance is most important when students or staff will be engaged in something for more than a few minutes, like during class, reading or quiet time, or eating lunch. There may be brief moments, such as passing by others in the hallway or during play at recess when students are less than six feet apart from each other.”
WHWS staff always encourage 6-ft distancing throughout the class time. For transparency, we want to be clear that due to the nature of classroom learning, there will inevitably be moments throughout the school day where individuals may come within 6-ft of each other.
