New Masking Guidance Update

Supplemental Information
to the “Interim NYSDOH Guidance for Classroom Instruction in P-12 Schools During the 2021-2022 Academic Year

"Summary of changes from February 4, 2022, Interim NYSDOH Guidance for Classroom Instruction:
This document removes the statewide requirement for universal masking in schools, and applies to P-12 elementary and secondary public, charter, private and state-operated schools, including residential schools and programs serving students with disabilities, as regulated by the New York State Education Department.

Local health departments (LHDs) are encouraged to assess conditions and tailor guidance to their jurisdiction. A LHD may implement masking requirements that are more restrictive than the state, and LHDs and school districts and private schools should consult and collaborate on masking and testing decisions.
