COVID-19 protocols
- Masks are mandatory in all district buildings for everyone, regardless of vaccination status. Masks are encouraged but not required on outside school property.
- We will follow three feet of social distancing in our buildings wherever possible but in cases where we cannot maintain three feet while also achieving our goal of daily in-person instruction for all students, we will use polycarbonate dividers as an extra safety measure.
- We will conduct daily temperature screenings for all individuals upon arrival to school.
- We will continue to follow the same hand hygiene, and daily cleaning and disinfecting protocols that we have since the start of the pandemic.
- Masks also will be required for all students on buses and we will return to regular capacity guidelines on all buses.
As always, if you have any questions please call 518.475.6675 or email jpowell@albany.k12.ny.us. More information can also be found in this letter that was mailed to families.
