Dear Parents and Caregivers,
Jersey City Public School Superintendent Franklin Walker posted a health update today, on March 11, 2020. There will be some changes that will be implemented beginning this Friday, March 13, 2020. Following up on these recommendations:
- PS16 Annex at Danforth “Bring Your Parent to School Day” and “Parent Breakfast”, originally scheduled for March 18, 2020, is now postponed to a later date. Once the date is confirmed, we will share that information.
- At this time we are continuing our After School Program as planned until the district advises otherwise.
Please see Superintendent Franklin Walker’s health update here:
“In order to maintain a safe and healthy environment for our students, we continue to review and update our COVID-19 prevention protocols. As a result, the following changes will be implemented beginning this Friday.
- – All visitors to our schools including parents must have an appointment;
– Early Childhood registration will be placed on hold until further notice;
– Students that are ill must continue to remain home;
– During this health emergency, all students coming from another country will be required to have a 14-day self-quarantine period before registration;
We will continue to review the recommendations from the Health Department and that may require that we ask scheduled visitors a series of health-related questions before entering the building.
Thank you for your patience and support as we continue to implement safety procedures that will minimize everyone’s exposure to potentially unsafe conditions.”
