Covid Health and Safety Guidelines

Kids For Kids Academy remains committed to the health and safety of our students. 

  • Although we understand that as of Friday 2/25/2022, DCF announced that they are no longer requiring children in childcare to wear masks, we at Kid For Kids Academy strongly recommend that they do.  
  • As a parent,  it is your choice to make.  If your child arrives at school wearing a mask, we will encourage and support them to keep it on.  
  • We will continue to offer free masks to all children to facilitate this.  
  • As an extra measure of protection, our kids in VPK and Kindergarten through Second Grade will continue work within individual plexiglass workspaces.
  • Our staff will continue to wear masks and we ask that if you approach the door that you continue to wear one too.  
  • All students and staff will undergo daily temperature checks.
  • The school will be cleaned and sanitized daily.
  • Students will not mix with other age groups.
  • All children will wash hands upon entry to the facility.
  • The health and safety of your child is our #1 Priority.
Thank you for entrusting Kids For Kid Academy with your child.  It is our privilege to serve you.
