Updated COVID guidance released for NYC schools

New York City schools will no longer require that parents fill out daily health screeners for their kids, according to new COVID-19 guidance released Tuesday.

The updated guidance for the upcoming school year also eases some protocols — like getting rid of random in-school testing — but keeps in place other vaccine-related requirements.

Kids who don’t have the jab will continue to be sidelined during some extracurricular activities, including high school sports, and school visitors — including parents — will still need to show proof of one vaccine dose to enter the building.

“Many high risk extracurricular activities are performed indoors, are strenuous, and entail closer contact than classroom activities,” said Michael Lanza, a spokesperson for the city health department.

“The guidance is intended to keep kids safe both in class and within these after-school activities,” he said.
