Staying Safe at School
At Ross Valley Charter, the health and safety of our students and staff is our highest priority. We are working hard to ensure that in-person classroom learning is safe and follows State and Federal public health orders. We are grateful for the commitment to health and safety we have seen from our whole community.
Our strategies have been developed and are revised in partnership with the Marin County Office of Education.
This webpage is intended to offer our community a central location to access information during this continually evolving time. The information on this page will remain fluid and responsive to new information from local, regional, state, and federal agencies.

Home Exposures
Please contact the office if your child has had an exposure to COVID-19 outside of school.
Practice Hand Hygiene
Frequent hand hygiene is one of the most important preventative practices to help slow the spread of COVID-19 and will be encouraged at school. Time for hand hygiene will be scheduled throughout the day including before eating and before returning to the classrooms after out-of-class activities.
Wear a Mask
Face coverings are required by the Marin Department of Public health based on our placement on the Mitigation Strategy Continuum. Staff, students, and any school visitors will be asked to follow latest guidelines.
Masks will be available for students if needed.
