School restarts tomorrow, January 4th, for all students. Students attending in person are no longer in cohorts, rather they attend in person everyday. Students who are registered to attend in person but do not attend will be over to remote learning automatically by the department of education. You must let your students' teacher know of any absences and have relevant documentation to support the absence. For drop off, please pull up to the Paw Path on slosson avenue beginning At 8:20am, do not exit your car- someone will check the health screen as each student exits their vehicle. PK should still use their specific entrance on Victory Boulevard. Students will be dismissed in the same area as they have been. Do not park your cars in the no parking zone from the Paw Path to Slosson avenue. Give yourself some extra timer park in legal spots each afternoon.

Based on guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the New York State Department of Health, and the NYC Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH), the quarantine period for individuals exposed to confirmed COVID-19 cases has changed from 14 days to 10 days. Individuals with confirmed COVID-19 cases can end their quarantine after 10 days without a testing requirement, as long as no symptoms have been reported during the quarantine period. Current DOE heath policy will be updated, and families will be informed of this change in the coming days. Please note that effective January 3, 2021, the timeframe for individuals exposed to confirmed COVID-19 cases and the resulting interventions, such as classroom closures and building closures, have also changed from 14 days to 10 days. Individuals, classrooms, and school building closures that were subject to a 14-day quarantine period prior to January 3, must complete the duration of their 14-day quarantine.
