Covid-19 Update for 2021-2022 School Year

Welcome Back to our Chandler Park Academy District Students and Families! School will look a little different this year, but we’re excited to safely see you. Before we get started, we want to share the new updates on health and safety protocols for our students and staff.

CPA District will adopt the Layering Protective Approach as defined by the CDC that encourages multiple actions to combat the spread of the COVID-19 virus and variants. The CDC says, “this layering includes a combination of protective actions, such as screening and testing, mask-wearing, ventilation, hand washing and covering coughs and sneezes, staying home when sick and more.”

Will my student need to wear a mask all day?
CPA Will Have A Universal Mask Mandate. All students, staff, vendors, and community members inside of District buildings will be required to wear masks regardless of vaccination status. Masks will be provided on-site if an individual does not have one.

Does my child still need to practice social distancing?
The District will maintain 3 ft of social distance between students and staff where possible.

What other precautions will be taken this year?
Temperature checks at school entrances and sanitation stations will remain in effect this school year.

Are vaccinations required?
Although not required, vaccination is highly encouraged for all students and staff. We will share opportunities for vaccination throughout the year for our CPA community.

What if someone in my student’s class or school tests positive for COVID-19? 
Temperature checks will be performed daily upon arrival at each building. If a person is confirmed to have a temperature above “normal” that person will be sent to an insolation room in the building. (The CDC registers 100.4 or higher as “fever” — meaning it would be almost 2 degrees above what’s considered an average “normal” temperature of 98.6 degrees.) If it has been proven that he/she has tested positive for COVID-19, contact tracing will be put in place so that notification can be provided to those who have been in contact with that individual. Individuals must remain out of the building until the proper quarantine time has passed before returning (preferably with an all-clear from a physician).

What should I do if my child is sick? 
Parents will be asked to complete a screening process and keep the child at home.  Please contact your physician and then update the school with a diagnosis from the physician before returning the student to school.

Thank you families and staff for your continued support during this time. If you have any additional questions or would like more information, please check the latest CDC Mandates and/or Michigan Health Department websites.

Dear Chandler Park Academy School Families,

In accordance with the emergency order announced on Sunday, November 15, 2020, by the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS), and Governor Gretchen Whitmer, CPA High School will shift to 100% virtual instruction, and ALL District extracurricular activities are canceled during the State’s three-week pause. Because of increased interaction, the State has identified that these two groups are at a higher risk of contracting the virus.

From Wednesday, November 18, 2020, through Tuesday, December 8, 2020, high school students will remain at home and shift to 100% virtual learning. ALL District athletics are suspended effective immediately in accordance with the MHSAA.

High school students and school extracurriculars are set to return to in-person classes and activities on Wednesday, December 9, 2020. We will continue to monitor and share any additional updates with our CPA community.

Students in Grades PK-8
There will be no change for in-seat students in grades PK-8. Based on the emergency order and research from the MDHHS, these students remain at a lower risk of contracting the virus and can remain in school. If you have additional questions, please contact your school’s office.

Dear Parents /Guardians:

We know it is alarming to hear all the news reports about the Novel Coronavirus. There is so much information being given out and frankly, it can be overwhelming, especially since Michigan has confirmed cases of the virus in the state and closed K-12 schools beginning Monday, March 16, 2020.

The administrative and medical staff of the Chandler Park Academy School District share your concerns, and we are developing programs to help us all respond appropriately and help support our CPA families during this time. We also share in Governor Whitmer’s sentiment that, “this is a necessary step to protect our kids, our families, and our overall public health.”

We are working closely with the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS), Wayne County Health Department and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) who will be directing us regarding all procedures. So for now, effective immediately, all CPA District events are canceled and school is closed as of Friday, March 13, 2020.

The health and safety of our students and staff are paramount, and we want to assure you that we are working to determine our options moving forward with that in mind. Please be assured that we will update families, with new information as it becomes available.

Please remain connected to the Chandler Park Academy School District through our District website, email list and social media where we will provide the latest updates. We will also alert you through robo-calls and email with any changes in procedures or updates to events that affect our school.

Also, please read the handout below from the MDHHS regarding the 2019 Novel Coronavirus. The handout will give current information and ways that you can protect yourself and family from the virus.

>> MDHHS 2019 Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) Fact Sheet

Working together; adhering to the procedures given by the CDC and practicing good hygiene will help us to protect ourselves and others during this medical emergency.
