School Resources for COVID-19

Dear CSAN Members and Friends:

We wanted to provide you with some resources to help with the rapidly evolving COVID-19 situation. It goes without saying that the safety of your students and staff must be the priority. We also strongly encourage everyone to follow any recommendation by state authorities as well as any recommendations made by your sponsoring entity, be it the SPCSA or local school districts.

Where to Find Information

The current guidance is to monitor the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) website daily to see if there are any updates or recommendations. This website includes specific guidance for schools that do not have COVID-19 identified in their community and for those that do. (The CDC also has posters and print materials on the coronavirus in multiple languages ).

We also recommend you monitor:

U.S. Department of Education, which published information for schools and school personnel at https://www.ed.gov/coronavirus

Nevada Department of Education: http://www.doe.nv.gov/

Resources for Schools

If you could use assistance with communications directed at parents or internally, we are providing access to a Box folder that has been compiled by the National Alliance of Public Charter Schools that has a number of sample communications materials available here:
