Private school w/great COVID safety orinda to Concord

Hi. We are getting ready to move from virtual to in-person and would love to find a private school that has and is planning to continue to have great covid safety measures. For example, an air filtering system, frequent testing, low rates of covid among the students. Geographically between anywhere between Orinda and Concord. We are willing to drive out for the right place. Thank you!

Hi there- we left our Oakland public school last year and enrolled our 2nd grader at Seven Hills School in Walnut Creek.  They have been in person since October 2020.  It's been a great experience and we appreciate their COVID protocols.  They have been testing weekly (PCR).  But it sounds like some of that may be relaxed in the new year.

Our student currently attends Orinda Academy. It’s a wonderful community and the administration has been attentive to the health of the OA community and CDC recommendations during COVID. Some of the protocols for on-campus instruction have been: all students and staff wear masks; everyone washes their hands at outdoor handwashing stations before entering the school; each student answers questions for a daily health screening upon arrival; every room has an air purifier and the school has an updated ventilation system.
