SCSD Air Quality Protocols

SCSD has protocols in place to prioritize student and staff safety, as well as ensure learning continues when air quality conditions shift. Our priority is to maintain safe in-person learning for students.

You can find the most current SCSD Air Quality Protocols on our website. Consistent with the County Office of Education and the San Mateo County Health Department, SCSD uses Air Now and Bay Area Air Quality Management District Index to monitor climate conditions.  Click on the title link to learn more.

This year, we’re focused on the following key areas as we continue to implement our Strategic Plan: 

* Build and maintain a sense of community and belonging
* Learn and implement practices that create equitable learning opportunities for students and focus on equity and inclusion
* Create and implement engaging curriculum (Reader's/Writer's and Phonics Workshop, Math in Focus, STEMscopes Science)
* Consistent and supportive collaboration among teachers, students, and parents
* Continuing to foster the 5C’s through innovative practices  (STEAM)
