Yellow Zone Test Results Summary: Since Lockport City School District has tested over 20% of the required population and the district positivity rate percentage is below the regional positivity rate percentage, the in-person hybrid instructional model will resume for students and staff on Monday, January 11, 2021. However, as we continue to manage the COVID-19 pandemic and monitor staff coverage concerns in each school building, a shift to the full remote instructional model could occur on a building by building basis.

Thank you for participating in the yellow zone testing process. No further yellow zone testing is required at this time. Please remember to wear a face covering, practice social distancing, wash your hands frequently, and monitor your health regularly. Stay safe and be well.

Due to the ongoing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the New York State Education Department (NYSED) cancelled the administration of the January 2021 New York State High School Regents Examination Program that had been scheduled for the January 2021 Regents Examination period (January 26-29). These four days will be instructional attendance days for students either through the hybrid or remote models.
