School Safety

The safety and health of our students and staff are a top priority.  Not only are we governed by strict guidelines set by the Department of Texas Health and Human Services.  These guidelines (known as the Texas State Minimum Standards for Day Cares) are available for your review.  Simply click the link below to download this document.

 

Grace Lutheran School also has a stringent, daily routine to clean and disinfect all areas of the school.  We encourage the practice of good hygiene of both staff and students and respectfully ask that the school families reinforce these practices at home.  If you or any family member is running or overcoming a fever, please remain at home.  If you have any questions about the attendance of sick student, please call the school office.
