Yesterday, Mayor de Blasio and Chancellor Carranza announced that school buildings will reopen for students in grades 3K-5 on
Monday, December 7 and for District 75 students (all grade levels) on
Thursday, December 10. Students in grades 6 through 12 (outside of District 75) will continue to learn remotely until further notice. Schools in designated orange or red zones will not reopen.
The reopening of school buildings
only applies to students who already opted into blended (in person) learning. If your child has attended school in person or will soon, consent forms will be required for
weekly mandatory in-school COVID testing. This applies to all students including District 75, except those with medical exemptions.
If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to speak one-on-one with an INCLUDEnyc educator:
MEDIATION & PROBLEM SOLVING
Mediation can help you resolve special education, family, or community problems without taking legal action. During Thursday's workshop, meet the mediators who serve your borough and we’ll discuss the many ways mediation can help you and your family, including:
- Securing special education and Early Intervention services
- Resolving family issues, such as co-parenting or divorce
- Facilitating youth-centered conflict resolution
- Settling housing and small claims disputes
