2022-2023 COVID-19 Layered Mitigation Plan
We have updated our COVID-19 Layered Mitigation Plan in preparation for the start of the 2022-23 school year. The plan continues many of the successful practices put in place throughout Naperville 203’s Summer Learning program, such as:
- Optional masking for students and staff members
- Isolation for COVID-19 positive individuals
- Optimized ventilation in all schools and district buildings
- Cleaning and disinfecting surfaces regularly
- Access to optional COVID-19 testing
The strategies listed above are not all-inclusive. Please click below for a detailed explanation of Naperville 203’s COVID-19 Layered Mitigation Plan.
