I am a teacher there, they required us to wear a masks until May 12, even when the rest of the state stopped the mandate March 7!

The superintendents name is Eileen Schaefer. In the district letter released she says “it has beeb decided” so we are unaware if the board voted on it but I doubt it. I believe it was her decision. I believe based on what the letter said it’s also important to contact Paterson‘s Director of health who was also named in the letter, Dr. Presaud, as being part of the guidance for the decision.
