    • Description:
      As a K-12 school administrator, you can work with teachers, building managers, school nutrition staff, and custodians to modify mealtime school spaces to reduce the risk of spreading COVID-19. This tool can help you modify mealtime spaces to apply mitigation measures listed in Operating Schools during COVID-19: CDC’s Considerations. Examples are provided for eating meals in the cafeteria, classroom, and outdoor areas; however, you can apply the strategies in this document to other spaces, such as the gymnasium or auditorium.

      In addition to modifying the physical space, modify procedures to reduce the risk of COVID-19 transmission during meal service, such as ensuring proper handwashing or use of hand sanitizer before and after eating, staggering mealtimes for class cohorts, and expanding disinfection or sanitization practices to include makeshift food surfaces (such as desks) between each use. For more complete guidance on school meal distribution procedures, see Safely Distributing School Meals during COVID-19.
