PPE Budgeting for the 2021-2022 School Year

Put Your CARES Act Funds To Good Use

School administrators and staff have faced unprecedented times. They have been tasked with the challenge to reopen schools, while ensuring that they keep their students and staff safe from COVID-19. In order to minimize the potential spread of the virus, certain changes need to be made in order to achieve the optimum interior layout. 

While the upcoming 2021-2022 school year budgets are being drafted, now is the time to plan PPE needs for the fall. Aside from hand sanitizer, cleaning supplies, gloves and facemasks, partitions are a smart option to aid in mitigating the transmission of the virus.  

We understand that each school has unique needs and specific ideas for the best way to navigate CDC guidelines for in-person learning. This may mean separating students into cohorts, establishing respective areas for sporting events, or designating specific grade level zones in the lunchroom, a simple solution to these problems can be answered with the use of a partition from Ntension. These partitions provide divider options for communal spaces like hallways, classrooms, cafeterias, gyms, and libraries. Partitions add a gentle separation of these areas and assist in crowd control. 

Stimulus grants can help!

Did you know that CARES Act funds have been approved for the purchase of Ntension partitions? Money from the CARES Act may be used to pay for equipment and supplies that are needed for schools to continue teaching and learning. 

Our partitions do exactly that! With fireproof and antimicrobial certified fabric that’s easy to clean, our partitions help to prevent the spread of germs in the air while looking stylish at the same time! 

What can my partition be used for after everything goes back to normal?

Partitions from Ntension can be purchased now for PPE use and easily converted for future activities. Due to their lightweight design and ability to break down and set up in minutes, our partitions can be used for an array of other events including; school dances, prom, theater, graduation backdrops, sports signage and the ever popular, photo backdrop. 

Imagine prominently displaying your school name and mascot across a partition, graduation photos will pop, homecoming games will scream school pride and dances will rock! You can also custom design your partition to feature options like motivational quotes of inclusion, photos of students learning or feature unique student artwork. The question remains, “What CAN’T you do with an Ntension partition?” Custom design means any size or height requirement can be fulfilled. Sky’s the limit on options and working with one of our design team members, we will ensure your vision is achieved. 

When and if things ever get back to “normal” is open for interpretation. However, having the piece of mind that your school will be prepared for any scenario, is a wonderful thing.
