Planning Timeline

  • YPS began the reopening planning process in Spring 2020 by gathering stakeholder feedback, recommendations, and guidance through the Distance Learning Surveys and Stakeholder Planning Committees. In June and July 2020 YPS central office staff used this feedback to create the Reopening Plan (“The Plan”) and to ensure alignment with guidance from the New York State Education Department (NYSED) and other state and federal agencies.
