Dear Roslyn Families,

On Friday afternoon, we received a letter from Dr. Howard Zucker, New York State Commissioner of Health written to Dr. Rochelle P. Walensky, Director of the CDC. As you will read, "New York State plans to align the school and camp mask guidance as follows:

  • Indoors, mask use will be strongly encouraged, but not required for students, campers, and staff/teachers/counselors who are not fully vaccinated.
  • Outdoors, masks are not required; students, campers, and staff/teachers/counselors who are not fully vaccinated are (encouraged) to wear a mask in certain higher risk circumstances.
  • Both indoors and outdoors, students, campers, and staff who are fully vaccinated do not need to wear masks.

Governor Cuomo has indicated that the New York State Department of Health has reached out to the CDC to determine whether there is an objection to this change. 

Once new guidance has been issued by the NYSDOH and/or the Governor, we will apprise you accordingly. 

Our primary goal has always been to keep our students, faculty and the entire Roslyn community safe and we will continue to do so.



Sincerely,

Allison Brown
Superintendent of Schools
