Broome-Tioga BOCES, working with our component school districts, is closely monitoring this fluid situation, following guidance from the U.S. Centers for Disease
Control (CDC), the New York State Department of Health (NYSDOH), Broome County
Health Department and the New York State Education Department.
With the safety of our students and staff foremost in mind, all of our schools are taking every precaution to ensure safe working and learning environments. Each of our districts have infective disease protocols in place and are making extra effort to minimize the spread of all viruses, including the new COVID-19, by stepping up cleaning and disinfecting procedures throughout our school facilities.
It is important that residents who have special concerns or questions about the Coronavirus outbreak seek out and consult credible sources, avoiding those where rumor and uninformed opinions are frequently shared. It is for that reason that this webpage has been created: to ensure up-to-date and accurate information about a very important health issue.
