Covid-19 Recovery

Hygiene & Safety

MUSD asks our employees to help with our prevention efforts while at work. ​All employees are responsible for using safe work practices, following all directives, policies and procedures, and assisting in maintaining a safe work environment.

Handwashing
​In order to implement effective hand sanitizing procedures, we will place postings with instructions on how to properly wash hands (at least 20 seconds) at all sinks throughout the District. Hand sanitizer is provided to each site for use in classrooms, outside restrooms, building entrances, and other work areas. When in-person learning returns, portable handwashing stations will be provided to sites to help with the increased demand for hand washing. District will ensure there is adequate supplies on hand for this such as hand soap, paper towels, and hand sanitizer.

Face Coverings
MUSD provides clean, undamaged face coverings and ensure they are properly worn by employees over the nose and mouth when indoors, and when outdoors and less than six feet away from another person, including non-employees, and where required by orders from the California Department of Public Health (CDPH) or local health department. All employees are provided two cloth face coverings. Replacement face coverings, including surgical masks that may be provided at a later date by the Governor of California, are located in all district offices and additional supplies can be ordered from our warehouse by contacting Business Services.

If an employee is not wearing a mask, employees are expected to be upstanders and immediately remind the employee to put on the mask. Additionally, the employee not wearing the mask should be reported to the nearest supervisor for additional action. The district will supply staff who come into routine contact with others, CDPH recommended use of disposable 3-ply surgical masks, which are more effective than cloth face coverings.

The following are exceptions to the use of face coverings in our workplace:
  • When an employee is alone in a room.
  • Eating and drinking at the workplace should be done in an outside area with at least six feet apart between individuals. As of January 14, 2021, indoor eating and drinking is currently prohibited.
  • Employees wearing respiratory protection in accordance with CCR Title 8 section 5144 or other safety orders.
  • Employees who cannot wear face coverings due to a medical or mental health condition or disability, or who are hearing impaired or communicating with a hearing-impaired person. Alternatives will be considered on a case-by-case basis.
  • Specific tasks that cannot feasibly be performed with a face covering, where employees will be kept at least six feet apart. Any employee not wearing a face covering, face shield with a drape or other effective alternative, or respiratory protection, for any reason, shall be at least six feet apart from all other persons unless the unmasked employee is tested at least twice weekly for COVID-19.
Guide to Face Mask Use
Physical Distancing
​School district staff members are essential employees because of the range of operations and services that are essential to the infrastructure of California and the United States. The district in agreement with the associations has encouraged employees to work remotely, if the work can be completed remotely, during heightened periods of COVID-19 cases in the County.

Teaching staff are encouraged to use their classroom spaces as teaching studios , while engaging in distant teaching and learning. For those who are working at a district location, they are required to practice physical distancing.  These protocols must be enforced when students and staff return in any capacity:
  • One person per family at a time in office.
  • Office personnel must be stationed at least 6' feet apart.
  • Visual cues such as signs and floor markings are displayed to indicate the flow of traffic in all common areas at the district office and school site.
  • Plexiglass dividers are provided in office areas and for student desks.
  • Eating indoors in staff or break rooms is prohibited.
  • Staff members should not congregate in groups indoors.
  • Staggered in-office work shifts when 6 ft distancing cannot be accomplished. 
  • ​Reduced occupancy signs are posted to show the number of individuals that are allowed in a workspace. 
  • Major shipments and large packages will be received/delivered through the warehouse.
  • Student and staff arrival, departure, and break time varies and are encouraged to be staggered. 
  • Drivers to remain in vehicles, to the extent possible, when dropping off or picking up students. When in-person drop-off
    or pick-up is needed, only a single parent or caregiver should enter the facility to pick up or drop off the child.
Face covering required; Do not enter building if have COVID symptoms
Physical distancing at 6ft.
Sneeze and cough into cloth, tissue, or elbow

SAFE PRACTICES FOR VISITORS
Only necessary visitors will be allowed on campus. Schools will limit the number of interactions students and staff members have with necessary visitors.​ When on-site visitors are necessary:
  • Designated Entrance/Exits
  • Facial coverings/masks required, hands sanitized prior to entry
  • One person per family at a time in office
  • Appointments for incoming visitors as much as possible. 
  • Line outside door marked 6' apart.
  • Hand sanitizers outside of restrooms
  • Drivers to remain in vehicles, to the extent possible, when dropping off or picking up students. When in-person drop-off or pick-up is needed, only a single parent or caregiver should enter the facility to pick up or drop off the child.​
  • Symptoms checks conducted for visitors who must come into building; otherwise, all visitor business should be conducted online as much as possible. See Health Screening section below.
Health Screening
Based on the CDPH guidelines, all MUSD employees and visitors are required to complete a health screening prior to accessing the MUSD campus. MUSD staff uses the ParentSquare portal for health screenings. Substitute employees and visitors use a Google Form. An alternate health screening form is available if you have trouble accessing the previous two screening forms.

​​MAINTAINING YOUR WORK AREA
Staff should clean frequently-touched surfaces in work areas and at school daily.
  • School buses should be thoroughly cleaned daily and after transporting anyone w/ COVID-19 symptoms.
  • If used, outdoor playgrounds/natural play areas only need routine maintenance.
  • Make sure that children wash or sanitize their hands before and after using these spaces. When hand hygiene is emphasized, cleaning of outdoor structures play is not required between cohorts.
In general, help our custodians and clean frequent touch surfaces in your immediate work area.
