7. Operational Changes

SCHOOL HOURS

A staggered schedule has been implemented to help control the flow of student traffic when entering and exiting the campus. This new schedule will be followed during in-person instruction.

K-2 - 8:00 - 2:00 p.m. 3-5 - 8:15 - 3:00 p.m.* 6-8 - 8:30 - 3:30 p.m.

*Distance learning schedule for grades 3-5 will be 8:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Morning Care will not be available this year because of our intention to restrict cohort exposure and limited facility space.

PARENT VISITORS

For the health and safety of our community, parents will not be allowed on campus without advanced approval and arrangements. We encourage meeting with Chandler faculty and staff virtually. If necessary, parents may visit campus with an appointment and must adhere to all health protocols, including face masks and distancing and screening at the front office.

LIBRARY

Students will no longer be able to use the libraries during the day. While we encourage the use of library resources for independent study, research and leisure reading, this year we will provide digital resources, which may include Overdrive - an app for electronic books and audiobooks.

FIELD TRIPS

For the 2020-2021 school year, all field trips are cancelled until further notice. This includes all outdoor education trips from 4th to 8th Grade.

LUNCH & SNACK

California Fresh has modified their lunch service and all meals will be boxed individually. There will no longer be a hot food entree option. CFA Hot Lunch has been cancelled this year and California Fresh will provide lunch service from Monday to Friday. Snacks and milk will no longer be provided during morning recess. Parents should plan to send students with a snack. Water fountains will also be limited, but children should bring their water bottle and may have it filled throughout the day by select support staff. Parents will not be allowed to deliver lunches or snacks to students at any time on campus.
