All NYC Public Schools Back Full-Time and in Person in September

Mayor Bill de Blasio announced New York City Schools will reopen fully in September. There will not be a remote option. The first day for students is set for September 13.

NYC Department of Education is planning to adhere to the many health and safety measures they had in place this past school year, including the following:

• Masks will continue to be a requirement in all of our school buildings

• Individuals with COVID-19 symptoms will continue to be required to stay at home

• Students, teachers and staff will continue to complete the daily health screener at home

• Every school building will continue to have a nurse

• Every classroom will have working ventilation systems

• On-site COVID-19 testing will continue in school buildings as recommended by the latest health guidance

• The Situation Room will continue to support schools with next steps if there are positive cases
