The head of New York City’s teachers union said he has grave concerns about whether the city’s K-12 schools will be ready to reopen on Sept. 21 as planned
, citing a, concerns about safety, and a lack of clarity on how many students will be showing up on opening day.
In a Monday briefing, United Federation of Teachers President Michael Mulgrew said the union will make a decision in the coming days on whether teachers should plan to return to schools on Monday, so that “everyone will have enough time to adjust.” School staffers discovered more concerns about “basic procedures and supplies” and ventilation in school buildings when they returned to classrooms on Sept. 8 to prepare for the reopening, Mr. Mulgrew said.
“While we made some progress, we did not meet the goal of getting all of the schools ready by any means,” Mr. Mulgrew said. “We still have a lot of work to do.” DOE spokeswoman Miranda Barbot said the agency is “continuing to work with schools to understand and help fill their staffing needs,” adding that the 2,000 extra educators is “one important step.”
