Wellness: Health and Safety Update
Masks Encouraged: Guidance from Boston Public Health Commission (BPHC) recommends that students wear a mask when returning from breaks. While we are not making masking mandatory, we strongly suggest that students wear a mask upon their return to school. We will have a limited number of disposable masks available.
Symptom Check: The following is from the Massachusetts Department of Public Health regarding symptoms
“Keep children home from daycare or school who have fever, especially with a cough, difficulty breathing or shortness of breath, congestion, runny nose, or sore throat, until they are fever-free for 24 hours without medications that reduce fever.”
Bottle Filling Stations: Students are strongly encouraged to use refillable bottles for water. We no longer will be supplying cups. The stations also have the functionality of a water fountain.
Dress Code:
As you are aware, we started off the year with supply chain issues from our vendor, as a result we allowed non CRB pullovers. As we are now in midyear students must adhere to our dress code policy and can no longer wear any pullover. They must be in a CRB approved pullover.
• Polo Shirt: Scholars need to wear a polo shirt imprinted with the Cristo Rey Boston logo.
• Pants/Skort: Scholars need to wear a pair of khaki, dark grey, navy blue or black dress pants with a professional, brown and/or black belt or the official khaki skort. Jeans, leggings, tights, and yoga pants are not permitted.
• Footwear: Dress and casual close-toed shoes including athletic sneakers are permitted. Sandals, slippers, moccasins, crocs, or open-toed/open-heeled shoes are not permitted.
• Sweaters and Fleece Jackets (Optional): Scholars may choose to wear a sweater, or a zip-up fleece imprinted with the Cristo Rey Boston logo These options must be purchased through official CRB retailers. Scholars are not to wear hoodies, winter jackets, vests, or jackets with hoods during the academic day, at both school and the workplace. Scholars may wear non-CRB, solid color navy blue, professional ¼ Zip Pullovers, fleeces, sweaters that are at the discretion of the school as to the professionalism of the attire.
If a student is not in dress code, they may be sent home.
