You can see copies of these posters on the <a href="http://email.mail1.veracross.com/c/eJw9T8uugyAU_BpZkgMcil2wqE39DXOCWElRDFjN_fuLmyazmMdiZkaLphXscMPmc0nr4BcKcdg-1oAAFMBmS0TGOKUn0AIRlLx71GK60TiipxFZtPO-b6VRj0b2Fed5ciqRp_yuaqPs171U5lJOKx0hfwsLVoIEkNIIpVEoLvjr9QR89lJ1XdffHm2DcI0R_PCZXE6lcJcWlu1ES4h_NZ59WHNwc_X593O9cDHUMlvbL_U704K-t_-sKUql">ASL COVID-19 web page.</a><br><br>Second, all faculty and staff are encouraging students to follow UK government advice regarding when to wash their hands. Parents can support these habits as well! The recommended times are:<br></span><ul><li><span style="font-size: 14px;">before leaving home</span></li><li><span style="font-size: 14px;">on arrival at school</span></li><li><span style="font-size: 14px;">after using the bathroom</span></li><li><span style="font-size: 14px;">after breaks and sporting activities</span></li><li><span style="font-size: 14px;">before food preparation</span></li><li><span style="font-size: 14px;">before eating food, including snacks</span></li><li><span style="font-size: 14px;">before leaving school</span></li></ul><span style="font-size: 14px;"><br>Third, we have placed hand sanitizer gel (70% alcohol) in various public areas at ASL. While washing with soap and water is by far preferable, we have heard that some would like access to hand sanitizer gel as well, and we are happy to support that request. Here are the locations at which we are providing hand sanitizer gel:<br></span><ul><li><span style="font-size: 14px;">Waverley Place entrance</span></li><li><span style="font-size: 14px;">HS office</span></li><li><span style="font-size: 14px;">MS office</span></li><li><span style="font-size: 14px;">LS office</span></li><li><span style="font-size: 14px;">Admissions</span></li><li><span style="font-size: 14px;">Accounts</span></li><li><span style="font-size: 14px;">Advancement</span></li><li><span style="font-size: 14px;">Aquatic & Fitness Center</span></li><li><span style="font-size: 14px;">Mellon Library</span></li><li><span style="font-size: 14px;">LS Library</span></li><li><span style="font-size: 14px;">Commons</span></li></ul><span style="font-size: 14px;"><br>Fourth, as an extra precaution, the housekeeping staff is now cleaning the door handles, push plates and handrails throughout campus with disinfectant spray daily. <br><br>Fifth, as noted in Robin Appleby’s email, we are not allowing student classroom visitors to campus for the foreseeable future. Additionally, we have taken the decision not to book any new or additional student trips within the next couple of months, and we are carefully reviewing already scheduled student trips.<br><br>And finally, we ask that you please check the <a href="http://email.mail1.veracross.com/c/eJw9j8uugyAYhJ9GdxBuKl2wqE19DYO_WEgRDHhJ3_7g5iSzmPlmMzMr0UlanzBuJuUYRrNq58ftqzpCiaCktmqWD-DTxLvGTAYIZ2LRwGQL0DVLS5baK7vvW674s2JD0XVd-BNPfHxL-Bxu1gHMzQ-rAwrxNB5BTDHo06UjIxeWmFa9uxhQcWi3Bm3H5B3UTjHCCGGso7wRlGOK3-8XEa-B8b7vh_YpK0HuzRSfJmlIMWcMca2TWvTq_K_U1riQHNjCy6b7LHhnwq509nf6_yxJ85B_0MdZ_g">latest UK advice</a> about COVID-19 frequently.
