Safety Postings

Diocese of Fresno Office of Catholic Education COVID-19 Safety Plan (CSP) January, 2021

The following is explanation/information regarding Covid 19 policies in our school

Introduction

In July of 2020 each of the 18 elementary schools, as members of the Diocese of Fresno Education Corporation, submitted Waivers to Reopen. Each county’s Public Health Director, in the 5 counties where these Catholic schools reside, approved these waivers and sent the waivers to the California State Public Health Office for approval. All of the 18 elementary schools were allowed to open for in-person instruction in either September and October. During the period of in-person instruction from September until the winter break on November 25, 2020, there was no outbreak of the virus due to the strict compliance of the Diocesan Reopening Guidelines. All 18 of the elementary schools can continue in person with the approved Waiver. It is understood that the new criteria and requirements replace those in the Elementary Waiver that allowed all Catholic schools to open in the fall. All waivers approved prior to this date remain valid.

The two Catholic high schools, Garces Memorial in Bakersfield and San Joaquin Memorial in Fresno were allowed to open once Kern and Fresno Counties were in the Red Tier. These schools used the hybrid model and they too prevented any spread of the virus during the time before and since the winter break. Our high schools remain open even though these two counties have moved into the Purple Tier as is allowed by the state of California.

This new document includes all the components for safety laid out in the January 14, 2021 document, COVID-19 and Reopening In-Person Instruction Framework and Public Health Guidance for K-12 Schools in California, 2020-2021 School Year. Attached to this document is the COVID-19 School Guidance Checklist, completed by each principal for each school as well as one compilated checklist from the Office of Catholic Education for the Diocese of Fresno. This reporting shall continue every other Monday (or the Tuesday immediately following if the Monday is a state holiday) until this directive is modified or rescinded.

The Diocese of Fresno Catholic Elementary and Secondary Schools also follow the State of California’s updated Travel policy. Non-essential travel (for recreational purposes) should be limited to 120 miles from the person’s home. Californians who travel outside the state or the country must quarantine for 10 days upon their return to California. Visitors to California from other states and countries must also quarantine for 10 days upon their entry into California.

CURRICULUM

Technology

MIQ School is committed to preparing our students to be active members in today's technology centered world. Grade levels K-8 receive instruction in a technology enhanced classroom. Lessons are integrated and enhanced using interactive white boards, responders, internet and multi-media that is textbook based. In addition, monthly STEM challenges encourage creativity and "out of the box" thinking, while making learning fun. Grades K to 8th have access to Chromebooks for lessons and enrichment.

Religion

Technology

In addition to formal instruction in the classroom, the religion program provides opportunities for the students to live the faith through prayer services, participation in liturgies and reception of sacraments. Our students strive to see the sacredness in the depths of everything and to be inspirations for their families and community. At M.I.Q., Catholic Identity is the top priority, as we find that faith filled activities are more powerful than a stand alone religion class.

Athletics

Technology

Student Council

The after school sports program is an extra-curricular activity, and is open to students grades 5th to 8th. Students in 4th grade can participate on D teams when needed. Athletic teams offered include basketball, volleyball and track. Students who participate in the after school sports program are subject to the responsibilities set forth in the MIQ Sports Contract.

Student Council

The purpose of Student Council is to promote good citizenship, help students develop leadership and responsibility, to demonstrate the practical application of democracy, to encourage a high standard of scholarship, to stimulate school spirit, and to advance the welfare of the school and its students in every possible manner.

MIQ Children and Families Need Your Help

During these unsettling times, one thing is certain, our community's unwavering commitment to Catholic education. Our families have been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Some have been laid off, furloughed, or had significant reductions in salaries. Families who are small business owners are struggling to make ends meet, and some of our students are wondering if their families will be able to continue to provide them with an MIQ education.

Please continue to pray for our MIQ family, and if you can, please consider a contribution to the Knight Relief Fund. The fund will provide additional tuition assistance for our students and help make up the difference in anticipated financial losses to the school due to the postponement of our fundraising efforts. These fundraising efforts historically generate over $100,000 and have a direct impact on student programs and tuition support to our families.

To make your gift, contribute by check, please send your donation to:

Mary Immaculate Queen School

Attn: Knight Relief Fund

884 N. Lemoore Ave

Lemoore, Ca 93245

Mary Immaculate Queen School Federal Tax ID#941-47-028

Current data from other Catholic schools around the country are seeing families currently receiving aid needing an additional 20%-40%, as well as an increase in families, who under normal circumstances would be able to pay full tuition, requesting tuition assistance. Since we really have no idea how many families will need assistance this school year, our appeal will remain active through the end of July!

On behalf of our families in need, thank you for your generosity and willingness to help at this critical time. May God continue to keep you and your family safe and healthy and may God continue to bless Mary Immaculate Queen School.
