He said all regions can open. Some school districts have not submitted or have incomplete plans but they are going to notify those districts

My local newspaper had a link to the call so I’m listening to it. He wants districts to post their virtual learning plans, testing and contract tracing plans on their sites!

He said there were 200 either not submitted or had issues. Our district plan is for super cautious so we aren't on that list. I think it's safe to assume for districts with decent plans

DOH will notify by Monday/Tuesday 120 something have plans that weren’t submitted or insufficient Schools have until the 21st (outside of the big 5, whatever that means) to hold 3 online sessions with parents and answer their questions They also have to hold a session with just teachers

I am at a deck having lunch with MH and I literally just high-fived. Mom at the table next to me is telling her kids they’re back, they prob have to wear masks but it’s better than being home, right? Everyone has their phones out. I’m laughing, this whole restaurant is celebrating.

As much as I know DS1 is going to love being back, I can’t say my anxiety isn’t spiking thinking about all of the germs.

I was like, “uh, why did you ever think it’s every day?” I am this man’s assistant who just briefs him on things.

Listening to this, I don't think that NYC schools are going to open on-time for hybrid. With Cuomo saying "the teachers have to feel safe" and "teachers have to agree to go back," along with there has to be a good testing and contact tracing program-- I think he has an out for NYC not opening 'normally' for hybrid. NYC teachers do not seem on board-- at least from everything I've seen. (And I get).
I am super happy for everyone in new york state whose districts have good plans though!

Is anyone else concerned about colleges opening for in person? We already know that young people suck at this so it feels crazy to put them all in the same place. It's not like they will only stay on campus and be in a bubble. I know some have plans to test every 2 days but how do they enforce that? It just sounds like a recipe for disaster. Yes. H works for largest university in our region and we're basically bracing for the fallout. Not only is this age group disgusting and bad at following rules, but they're coming from all over the country and the world. It's going to be a disaster if colleges can't keep a tight leash, which is basically asking for a miracle to happen.

And with that announcement we got DD1'S cohort assignment. She'll be going M/Th and be virtual the rest the week. I'm going to get MIL to try and come out once a week to help with one of her virtual days to try and take some of the load off of me. Or she can field the baby and DD2 while I school, whichever.
Apparently we aren't getting teacher assignments until the end of the month. But at least I can ask around and find out if she has friends going the same cohort days. Sounds like we won't know her virtual day time schedule until we know who her teacher is since their plan allows for teacher flexibility when it comes to synchronous vs asynchronous scheduling.
