Monroe County superintendents have advocated for local control of reopening decisions. Regional factors like community transmission and vaccination rates, along with the effectiveness of layered mitigation strategies, may influence a school district’s return to school plans. While the Fairport CSD hopes to have some flexibility and discretion moving forward, districts are obligated to follow all guidelines as directed by the state.
