Governor Cuomo has announced that schools will remain closed through the end of the year.
The District will be sharing further details as we receive guidance from the NYS Education Dept and the Governor. Food distribution will continue on Tuesdays and Thursdays for those families who have requested breakfast and lunch.
More details and resources can be found under our COVID-19 tab.

New guidelines released by the Centers for Disease Control outline what steps might be necessary for school to resume in the fall.
The guidelines include maintaining six feet of distance between desks, maintaining similar distance on buses, students eating pre-packaged meals for lunch in classrooms, and cancellation of school trips and extracurricular activities.
Essentially, it won’t be the same school experience, or anything anyone has been familiar with for the last several decades.
The CDC also recommends that students and teachers wear masks at all times. Teachers are concerned that would make educating more difficult.
Scheduling would also be a challenge – because the CDC is recommending that students stay with individual teachers for as much time as possible.

I think the upcoming school year is going to be a terrible mess nationwide. I am hopeful it will force Senate Republicans to abandon Trump and he will be forced to resign in October. That is all it would take for Trump to be history.

Dr. Pritesh Gandhi >>> I am a doctor. I lead a health clinic in East Austin and treat #COVID19 patients. America is out of its mind thinking we are even remotely prepared for school this fall. We are definitely NOT ready & if people say we are, it's either out of ignorance or arrogance. (1/x)

In adding teachers to its list of essential workers, which is only guidance and nonbinding, the government is advising teachers exposed to confirmed cases of Covid-19 but who are not exhibiting symptoms to remain at work and not quarantine.

In August, Trump introduced a new adviser to the White House's coronavirus task force, Dr. Scott Atlas. Board-certified in diagnostic radiology, he is not an infectious disease expert, but his views on the pandemic, particularly around reopening schools, align much closer to Trump's views than his other health experts Fauci and Dr. Deborah Birx.

I wonder if Trump would stay at work if exposed to the virus? I wonder if Trump's kid would go to school 5 days a week? I know the answers to these. The guy is an idiot. In fact a friend told me this today... go to google and just type in "idiot".
