Reopening Washington Schools 2020: District Planning Guide
Miller, Michaela W.; Jeffries-Simmons, Tennille; Rockholt, Cindy
Washington Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction
Nothing in these past three months was in the training manual. Not in formal education, probably not in lived experience, and certainly not faced by the system as a whole. This document contains the initial fall reopening guidance by the Washington Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction (OSPI). This guidance is grounded first and foremost in the public health science and data provided by the state Department of Health (DOH). DOH is providing the regulatory framework when it comes to hygiene, physical distancing, and other public health considerations. OSPI is complementing the DOH guidelines with reopening guidance derived from the 120+ person Reopening Washington Schools Workgroup--the listening and learning we have engaged in with educators, education leaders, policymakers, parents, students, community-based organizations; the international and national research done by our partner Kinetic West; and the expertise of our staff in their respective fields. As such, the guidance both addresses public health science and data and provides consideration for how reopening schools can further the call to transform K-12 education to a system that is centered on closing opportunity gaps and is characterized by high expectations for all students and educators.
