Introduction and Summary
RRTC is committed to providing an excellent educational opportunity for its students while, at the same time, mitigating the risks associated with the COVID-19 virus during the 2020-2021 school year. Our success in this endeavor will be greatly dependent on you; the students, parents, clients, and staff. We will ask you to perform self-screenings daily before coming to RRTC. Students and staff who are exhibiting symptoms of COVID-19, or who have been exposed to COVID-19 should notify the RRTC office and STAY HOME. Students and staff who are required to stay home due to the impact of COVID-19 will be given the opportunity to work virtually to the extent possible.
RRTC has established an educational framework to adapt to the ever changing COVID-19 situation. The framework has plans for our educational platform to adjust from a traditional setting, to a modified A/B setting, and to a temporary distance setting as the COVID-19 situation will determine. Due to the nature of learning in our programs, it is the intent of RRTC to have students on campus, in some form, to the greatest extent possible while utilizing the guidelines of the ODCTE, OSDE, OSDH, and CDC to mitigate the risks of COVID-19. We look forward to working together with you to have a safe and productive school year.
