Facility Health and Wellness

Maintaining the health and wellness of Fenn facilities is also a priority:

Optimal Air Circulation.

Fenn engaged Environmental Health & Engineering, Inc. of Newton, Mass. for expert guidance on how to evaluate and ensure optimal air exchange and circulation in all campus buildings, classrooms, and meeting spaces. Service providers have been on campus throughout the summer to help install new air conditioning units and fans in classrooms and meeting spaces that did not already have optimal air flow. New equipment will vent out and exchange air in classrooms and meeting spaces a minimum of five times each hour, and these systems will operate 24 hours a day even as the weather gets cooler. Ceiling fans in some classrooms will also contribute to the movement of air.

Frequent Cleaning and Sanitation of Campus Buildings.

Fenn has engaged three day porters who will focus solely on sanitizing school spaces on a regular rotation during the school day. Their daily activities will include:

n

n

n Wiping down all door handles of building entrances and exits and classroom and stairwell doors, as well as all hand railings;

Sanitizing all restrooms, which will be designated for specific cohorts and for students OR faculty/staff; and

Sanitizing all water fountains that are designated for the filling of water bottles. Water fountains that do not provide this service will be blocked off from use.

Additionally:

n

n

n All classrooms will have cleaning materials available to the adults using the space. Their periodic cleaning of the spaces will be supplemented by the efforts of a full-time cleaning crew that will sanitize classrooms when they are available during the school day.

Electrostatic spray surface cleaning will also be employed at least nightly. An electrostatically-charged mist is sprayed onto surfaces and objects, and the nature of the mist allows it to coat surfaces evenly and envelope objects. After the spray is applied, the sanitizing agent works to disinfect the covered surfaces.

All floors will be mopped with sanitizing floor solutions on a nightly basis.
