To guarantee the smoothness of students’return to school, JISU rigorously implemented the guidance and related requirements on the beginning of the spring semester in 2021 and pandemic prevention and control work set by the Ministry of Education and the Education Department of Jilin Province. JISU formulated a strategy of epidemic prevention, control work and related emergency plans, and prepared well ahead of time for all tasks. These tasks included promoting epidemic prevention knowledge, disinfection-related measures on campus and others, and made the school-reopening based on“Staggered Returning”policy to ensure the safety of students.
