NYC students to go remote classes over lack of COVID-19

About 12,000 city students will switch to fully remote learning after failing to provide COVID-19 testing. Roughly 190,000 kids in pre-K, 3-K, grades K-5, and some special needs learners were eligible to return to classrooms this month.

All of those families had signed up for the DOE’s blended learning program that includes classroom instruction. Moreover xiting the need to guard against outbreaks, de Blasio required parents to submit coronavirus testing consent forms. But exempted the early learners and special needs kids.

That left about 130,000 students in grades K-5 required to provide the document if they wanted to remain in classrooms. However the DOE told The Post this week that 91 percent of kids in that group submitted the paperwork.
