A message from our Food Service Management Company.
We are closely monitoring the impact of the coronavirus (COVID-19) in Arkansas after the recently confirmed case in the state. Our number one priority is health and safety of our associates, your students and communities. In an effort to stay ahead of this dynamic situation, earlier this year we established a Coronavirus Response Team comprised of senior leadership representing Food Safety/Quality Assurance, Workplace Safety, Human Resources, Supply Chain, Legal and Communications that continues to monitor developments closely and follow guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the World Health Organization (WHO) and other health authorities. In addition, we updated our comprehensive Pandemic Management Policy that has been successfully used in previous health threat situations to ensure we are prepared to manage the potential escalation of COVID-19 effectively. This document outlines how we are approaching the impact of Coronavirus (COVID-19) at Chartwells K12 and the measures we are putting in place across our organization. You can also rest assured we are taking many steps to ensure a safe foodservice environment and to reinforce our stringent health and hygiene standards. This includes:
Maintaining strict cleaning, sanitizing and disinfecting protocols
Ensuring CDC guidelines for handwashing and hygiene etiquette
Reinforcing Food Safety Management System/HACCP standards for food preparation and service
Please know that while we are working to mitigate any service disruptions, it is also important for us to collaborate with our clients and coordinate actions closely. This includes ensuring we have a clear understanding of your existing plans or policies and discussing our approach to minimize risks to employees and students. If your director has not already been involved in planning efforts with you, they will be reaching out early this week to discuss the District’s plan in case of potential school closure.
We recognize this situation will continue to evolve and want you to know we’re committed to our partnership and appreciate the opportunity to work with you. If you have any questions or concerns, please let us know.
Way to go, Ms. Turner's class! They read a total of 10,896 minutes last week and are the winning class of our Read-a-Thon! As a school, we read a total of 71,758 minutes; that's over 1195 hours! Ms. Turner's class will be receiving popsicles on Friday provided by EPIC.
Reminder: Tomorrow wear RED and BLACK!
Reminder: Crazy Sock Day is tomorrow!
We take the safety and well-being of our students and staff very seriously at the Cutter Morning Star School District and felt that it would be timely to share our continuing commitment in light of the coronavirus (COVID-19) concerns across the country. While we have not experienced any health-related challenge with COVID-19, we do know that the flu is still prevalent in our state. We are taking this opportunity to review and share some of our health emergency protocols.
We’re celebrating National School Breakfast Week March 2-6! Did you know that #SchoolBreakfast professionals serve 14 million students every day? #NSBW20
