A Message from Superintendent Bradley: Yellow Zone Designation Letter to Parents/Legal Guardians
December 17, 2020: As you may know, Lockport City School District schools are now situated in a yellow zone according to Governor Cuomo's micro-cluster initiative. The yellow zone designation goes into effect on Monday, December 21, 2020. Last evening, Wednesday, December 16, 2020, the Board of Education discussed the impact of the yellow zone designation for our district, including required COVID-19 testing for schools to remain open in a hybrid instructional model.
A very special thank you to all parents, legal guardians, and caretakers for your incredible support of teachers and the District, for the strong encouragement provided to your children, and for you all that you have had to do to make adjustments during the COVID-19 pandemic. I hope that you enjoy the upcoming holidays with loved ones. Stay safe and be well.

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.
