Message from NYS Education Department Monday Evening: The State Education Department understands that Nassau County Supreme Court has ruled that the Department of Health exceeded its authority in enacting the mask regulation, 10 NYCRR 2.60, in Demetriou et al. v. New York State Dep’t of Health et al. This regulation is the subject of conflicting decisions, insofar as Albany County Supreme Court recently upheld the regulation in Massapequa UFSD et al. v. Hochul, et al. It is SED’s understanding that the Department of Health will appeal the Nassau County Supreme Court decision, which will result in an automatic stay that will unambiguously restore the mask rule until such time as an appellate court issues a further ruling. Therefore, schools must continue to follow the mask rule. Thank you for your patience as we continue to work through the expected and unexpected daily/weekly changes we are dealing with. For now, masks are still mandated for everyone in school.

Reminder: On Friday, January 28th, BFCSD will being having an early dismissal for staff development. MS/HS students will be dismissed at 11:30 and Elementary students will be dismissed at 12:30. Lunches will be served prior to dismissal.

St. Lawrence Central Schools are closed for today, January 13th.

There will be a Covid-19 Vaccination Clinic (Pfizer) on Monday, November 15th from 1:00-4:00 pm in the St. Lawrence Central Elementary School Gym. Anyone with students ages 5-11 years of age are eligible for this vaccine. Please know there are only 54 spots open for vaccinations so if you truly want the vaccination, please register ASAP. If we have a large demand and our 54 slots fill up quickly, we may be able to get an additional vaccinator to come and do more this is up to Public Health. At the younger age levels, we are encouraging a parent/guardian to attend with the student if possible, but it is NOT a requirement. Adolescents (5-11 years old) attending without a parent will need to have a written consent form filled out by a parent or guardian to be vaccinated. This form and more information about the clinic can be found at: https://apps2.health.ny.gov/doh2/applinks/cdmspr/2/counties?OpID=CFE55C6569DF0282E0530A6C7C15BA0F Please go to the link and register for a time, if you wish.
