Among the items BIE is specifically considering as it undertakes reopening schools are: • What is needed to ensure student safety when using commercial transportation services before students travel to a residential facility and when they travel home? • Would you recommend that students be vaccinated before arriving on campus if vaccinations are available? • What are your recommendations to serve students that plan to attend residential facilities and post-secondary institutions from communities with high rates of COVID–19? • Are there any recommendations for grades K–12 and residential facilities not already addressed by ED and CDC reopening guidance that requires additional clarification or guidance by BIE? BIE-operated schools include three categories, each of which BIE will plan for separately: 1. Schools serving grades K–12; 2. BIE residential facilities; and 3. Post-secondary institutions (specifically, Haskell Indian Nations University and Southwest Indian Polytechnic Institute (SIPI)). The intended purpose of this stakeholder engagement is to ensure that BIE is meeting the needs of its students, schools, and Tribal communities during the COVID–19 Pandemic recovery.
