    Medidas de calidad del aire

    Todas las escuelas del Distrito Escolar Unificado de Vacaville (VUSD por sus siglas en inglés) estarán en sesión mañana.

    VUSD entiende que muchos padres no tienen tiempo para tomar libre para la mala calidad del aire; la cancelación de la escuela tiene el potencial de crear importantes desafíos de cuidado infantil para las familias con niños pequeños. También entendemos que muchos estudiantes tienen asma y problemas de salud que son negativamente efectuados por la mala calidad del aire. Respetamos las opciones de los padres para mantener a los estudiantes en casa según sea necesario. Los estudiantes que están ausentes con el permiso paterno debido a la calidad del aire esta semana tendrán ausencias justificadas.

    VUSD seguirá los datos y las directrices de la tabla “Spare the Air Current Conditions ” (Condiciones atmosféricas actuales) y “Air Quality Index” (el Índice de calidad del aire.)  Las siguientes son las medidas que el personal de VUSD tomará para asegurar una exposición mínima al aire no saludable.

     

    AQI


     

    Si los niveles de calidad del aire PM2.5 entran en rangos peligrosos o muy insalubres mañana:

    • Las escuelas secundarias y preparatorias acortarán los períodos de paso cuando sea posible para minimizar la exposición del estudiante al aire
    • Se cancelarán los deportes escolares después de escuela
    • Las clases de educación física tomaran lugar en el interior
    • Las escuelas seguirán los horarios de "días lluviosos" para mantener a los estudiantes en el interior para el almuerzo y el recreo
    • Las máscaras estarán disponibles en la oficina de enfermería de la escuela para los estudiantes que sienten que necesitan una
    • Las puertas y ventanas se mantendrán cerradas lo más posible
    • Las ausencias para estudiantes con condiciones de salud o preocupación serán consideradas excusadas
