In terms of social distancing: NYS guidelines stated that schools could choose:masks all day, polycarbonate barriers attached to desks and students wear masks when not in their barriers, or six feet of separation between desks and students wear masks when not at their desks. The guidelines also required adequate ventilation i.e. windows and doors open. Gadolhatorah stated that schools didn’t have sufficient space between desks. My point is that if the school installed the barriers then they weren’t required to have six feet of space between desks. Schools that conformed with NYS guidelines spent thousands of dollars on these barriers. I’m not saying that every school developed a plan that conformed to the state guidelines but it’s not nice to disparage the schools who are making extreme efforts to keep their schools open safely.
