The New York State Regents and Governor Cuomo released specific guidance for the 700 school districts in New York State this week. The one thing parents, teachers and kids can all agree on? School will never be the same in the wake of the pandemic.
Maybe you've seen the post being widely shared on Facebook. It purports to be the new "CDC Guidlines [sic]" for reopening schools - but is it really what you can expect in September?
New guidance from the State Education Department means Central New York schools - and all New York schools - will need to close for 24 hours if a student tests positive for coronavirus.
Teachers and substitutes don't get enough recognition as it is, but one substitute goes above and beyond, not only for his students, but for the whole school.
U.S. Secretary of Education DeVos has announced 342 schools as the 2017 National Blue Ribbon Schools. One of those schools is right here in Central New York.
