Dear Family and Friends
of Delaware Academy,
After much work and
consideration, we have submitted our framework for reopening to the New York
State Department of Education (NYSED) and New York State Department of Health
(NYS DOH) today. We have placed a public
link to this document on our website.
This document meets the
requirements set forth by NYSED and the NYS DOH. The schedule for students will continue to be
developed in the upcoming weeks and will be dependent upon Governor Cuomo’s
determination of opening which is anticipated by August 7. Based on the guidelines from the Governor,
NYSED, and NYS DOH, Delaware Academy will finalize the schedules for in-person
(hybrid) and remote learning in continued partnership with our Board of
Education and Reopening Committee.
Thank you to everyone who
has played a role in the preliminary development of this plan. The input and ideas of many in our community
have served to inform this and has reinforced the notion that we are truly
stronger together. Thank you for your continued
patience and support as we move closer toward our goal of reuniting our
teachers, staff and students in a way that prioritizes the health, safety, and
well-being of all. Go Bulldogs!
Sincerely,
Kelly M. Zimmerman - Superintendent of
Schools
