The district opened for in-person instruction for all students on Sept. 7, 2021. As recommended by the CDC and the New York State Department of Education, we will institute a multi-layered prevention strategy which will include:

• indoor masking at all of our schools for students and staff
• masking on buses and during arrival and dismissal
• three-feet social distancing
• strict cleaning and disinfection protocols

Nearly 300 families participated in our August 2021 ThoughtExchange, which asked, "What do you and your family need to feel supported, welcome, and safe at school in the upcoming year?" The results of that exchange will be available online soon. Responses are being used to finalize our plan.
