The district did not have enough tutors and we now have a virtual option for these students.

Mr. Mains also addressed questions about having Parent Teacher Conferences in person instead of virtually indicating that Orange County would have to drop from being a high transmission area and then the district can loosen the guidelines for having more people in our school buildings.

Additionally Mr. Mains indicated that during the year the district can revisit the reopening plans and make adjustments based on experience. The next question addressed was about mask wearing and request for documentation, Assistant Superintendent Amy Brockner informed that on August 27th the Commissioner for NYS Department of Health put out a statement in regards to mask wearing in schools. This documentation will be available on the district website.

Vice President Watkins addressed the fact that the National School Board Association submitted a letter to the President representing school boards without consulting them. A brief discussion amongst the board members
