Perkiomen School has required all employees and students to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19 by the start of the 2022-23 academic year, except in cases of health or belief exemption. Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, we have taken every possible step to safeguard our community’s health and safety, from wearing masks to healthy distancing to testing. The vaccination policy continues our efforts to ensure health and safety for our School community and our visitors and allow us to return to normal school activity to the maximum extent possible.
We will continue to implement a layered approach to health and safety measures.
- Enhanced air filtration and air exchange continues in campus buildings.
- Frequent hand washing and respiratory etiquette is required.
- All community members should self-screen daily for COVID-19 symptoms.
- Students, faculty, and staff should stay home or in dorm rooms when showing signs of an infectious illness AND contact their healthcare provider or the Health Center.
- All campus spaces – indoors and outdoors – will be used to maximize community building and safety.
- If riding a bus to and from school, students should follow the protocol of their school district regarding masking.
Please have a mask available with you when you come to campus, as health and safety directives do change quickly. We will review and communicate our masking policy at the start of the school year.
