ICYMI: Updates About the COVID-19 Vaccine
This morning, we shared updates about the COVID-19 vaccine for DPS team members, which included information about vaccine prioritization for frontline essential educators, resources to support your decision on whether to participate in vaccination, and more.
Starting Feb. 8, frontline essential educators, including teachers, other school-based staff and child care workers, as well as those 65-69 years old, will be eligible to receive the COVID-19 vaccine. In collaboration with union leadership, we will prioritize team members who are frontline essential educators -- those who are critical to the operations of the school and work with our students every day -- such as teachers, paras, bus drivers, cafeteria staff, custodians and school administrators. We will be in contact with those employees with steps on how appointments will be made with Children's Colorado. Please do not reach out Children's Colorado to set up your appointment.
