This list from the DOE website ...
https://www.schools.nyc.gov/about-us/news/chancellor-s-message-for-families/school-building-closures
(PS 36 website says they will open Friday, 12/11 ... but I don't know.)
It's going to be a boondoggle.
Looking at that list a fair amount of those schools are middle and high schools which hopefully means there should be a fair amount of schools opening on Monday.
I count 17 or 18 elementary schools on that list. (Both of mine are on it.)

One of my schools are ok it... PS 3 in the AM but I don't see PS 45 on it so I assume they will be open Monday.
So from this list do you think a lot of us go back to doing our own runs on Monday.....junior men including?
TheKid24,
I am sure we are all hopeful that all of us go back to work on Monday. The good thing is they can not combine runs so with that being said even if only one school is open on any run we have that run will need a driver and possibly a matron. Right we are going to have to show some patience unfortunately (something I lack) and wait for this to play out over the weekend.
Keeping my fingers crossed that we all get back to work Monday!!!!

No. Neither of my schools are open. I'll be doing your run. ;D ;D ;D
Now now Buzz it's not like you to be a troublemaker lol.
And if you wanted to be working you would have this past week and covered someone else's run. Lol
Shhh! ;D ;D ;D
Both of my Schools are on this list .. What's the protocol? Do I continue to stay home or do I have to come in , get my Bus and park it by my house ? 🤷♂️
Golfnut,
Unless you know something the rest of us apparently don't I think we are still waiting for our marching orders from Pioneer concerning next week.

All my schools are on the list so I guess another week of unemployment, or should I apply to Shoprite.

I think Amazon pays better. ;D
Keep your powder dry, guys. Still awaiting word from Ernie regarding Monday coming. I'm sure when he has a definite answer he'll let us know.

kids on hylan blvd can not go to school,but kids on forest ave can go... this is king cuomo and his micro cluster shit,which hasnt been updated since 11-23 and its a gaurantee if they did all of NYC would be red zoned by now...
The schools located within the so called orange and reds zones just need to apply to reopen follow the procedures and they should be open rather quickly. Not sure why the public schools haven't done that already since it appears some catholic schools have such as St. Pats in Richmond Town.
And if all the schools are required to follow the new testing procedures laid out by Dumblasio they shouldn't have to shut down again unless it's a system wide shut down. The weekly required testing going forward is more stringent than the testing required from the state. Let's just hope the BOE sets the wheels in motion sooner than later and gets these public schools open ASAP.
i think all the students and staff need to be tested before school can reopen... how the hell they going to get all these public schools students tested in the orange zone...
If they were smart they would open the school for one day administer the tests to all students and faculty wait for the results and then move forward with opening the schools.
If they do it all at once at the school they can have a much more streamlined opening since they can control the entire timeline from testing to school reopening.

exactly... i dont think they are smart enough to think this way...

I don't think so ... dB is saying 20% per week to get tested. Cuomo says 25%.

Just like you can eat at Goodfella's but not at Mac's Public House! Go figure. @#$%
That is the first time I am seeing that Buzz. But it would make sense.

Let's hope this is true !!!!
You know it would also make sense for them to then use the 25 percent as a weekly testing number so that they can satisfy both the state and city and potentially avoid any unnecessary school closures going forward. I am willing to bet in a lot of schools that extra 5 percent would not amount to a lot more tests being administered.
BUT HEY WHAT DO I KNOW !!!! :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:
I really think that within 2 weeks all schools are going to be closed again anyway.
I truly hope not Buzz, but it surely is looking that way. Positive test results are skyrocketing over 11000 positives results yesterday. Not looking very good at this point.
Guess I'll get ready for another week of Netflix....
Nothing against you guys but it's just fucking annoying that my schools are open and I won't be able to work. I know "union shop" sorry but it's just frustrating.
I believe just the opposite. After the holidays which is approximately 2 weeks all the schools will be open.

Yes, probably. But I think they will close before the break.
Well if they open them just to shut them back down before the break this really is a total fucking disgrace. I feel like I am playing monkey in the middle between Dumblasio and Cuomo. And my feet are encased in 100lb cement blocks.
I guess I could !!! Ha ha ha !!!
Or you could park it by the golf course. ;D ;D ;D
I guess I could !!! 🤔😂
They should close down all the schools and open them back up after the new year
