The following message is from ÍÃ×ÓÏÈÉú Superintendent Kaweeda G. Adams:
We are heartened by that COVID-19 restrictions are lifted statewide in most circumstances as 70% of New Yorkers aged 18 or older have received at least the first dose of their COVID-19 vaccination series.
This is welcome news after 15 challenging months in the midst of a worldwide pandemic.
However, the governor also indicated Tuesday that COVID-19 protocols remain unchanged for New York schools. The ÍÃ×ÓÏÈÉú will continue to follow all health and safety guidelines currently in place. This includes wearing masks inside all district buildings for all individuals – whether or not you are vaccinated – as well as social distancing.
Wearing a mask outdoors remains optional on school grounds.
Thank you for your continued commitment to the health and safety of every individual in our school community.
