NYC Schools Delay In-Person Classes Again for 2020-2021 School Year

NYC schools delay in-person classes and will not fully reopen on Monday as planned. Instead, the DOE released new start dates for in-person learning for the 2020-2021 school year.

In-person classes will be phased-in over the next two weeks, starting with the youngest. For children who are enrolled as fully remote will begin as planned on September 21.

Although so many of us were ready for the school year to finally start and getting fully prepared with school supplies and stocking the fridge up with ready-made meals for back-to-school, there is another school delay for the 2020-2021 school year.
