New Milford Public Schools will be placed on remote learning for the period of April 19-23, with all students at all schools returning in-person on April 26. District data shows that having a week of remote learning after a school vacation has been very successful as a mitigation strategy for New Milford Public Schools. It is anticipated that many families will be traveling and socializing during the April break. Superintendent DiCorpo says out-of-school socializing contributes to exposure and our community herd levels won't be at a protective level. For the health and safety of the school community, DiCorpo urged families to follow the travel guidelines that are in effect with the state, which is currently a suggestion rather than mandatory testing or quarantining.
