      Site Based Team Interview Training – March 2, 2023

      We will be providing a virtual Site Based Team (SBT) interview training on Thursday, March 2nd at 5:00pm. The training should take approximately one hour. It will be done via ZOOM, so there will be a limit to how many individuals can participate. Parents, teachers, and administrators will be invited to this training. Please call the Human Resources office at 631-244-6520 (no emails please) by February 14th if you would like to be added to the list for March 2nd. Once the list is final, we will send all participants a ZOOM invitation and some training materials/attachments.

      For those of you that may not be familiar with our SBT training, it is a requirement for you to sit on a SBT interview to hire new teachers and administrators. The training will help you to understand the process we go through for hiring, as well as the legal “dos and don’ts” during interviews.

      Also, the training will allow you to sit on SBT interviews for two years before you have to go through the training again.

       

    NEWS UPDATES

    • The State Department of Health’s New Guidance for K-12 is Good News for 2022-2023 Reopening of School  

       

      As our children, teachers and faculty prepare to head back to school, we are happy to report that our school year will begin operations under mostly pre-pandemic conditions. 

       

      New York State has updated COVID-19 guidance. This new guidance, which aligns with new CDC recommendations, will help schools collaborate with local health departments to support safe in-person instruction. It will provide greater flexibility to meet local community needs as COVID-19 community levels fluctuate. 

       

      Some of our more important reopening details are listed below: 

      • Masks are no longer required for participation in school.  
      • All desks and classroom arrangements will be made by our teachers with no restrictions.  
      • All cafeterias, libraries, and other large spaces will operate under normal conditions.  
      • All after-school and extracurricular activities will operate under normal conditions.  
      • We will no longer be required to contact-trace, quarantine, or mandate testing for students exposed to other individuals testing positive for COVID-19.  
      • Students testing positive for COVID-19 may return to school if they are symptom free after 5 school days and do not need to test prior to returning to school.  
      • Upon return to school, it is recommended (not required) that a child testing positive for COVID-19 wear a mask for up to 10 days.  

       

      For more detailed information regarding NYS COVID-19 guidance, please review the following documents (click here to learn more)—that include Frequently Asked Questions—released by the State for more detailed information.  

       

      Sincerely,

      Deputy Superintendent of Schools
