Public school districts are monitoring West Valley surges in COVID-19 spread â while hoping to get as many teachers as possible vaccinated.
One West Valley district pushed reopening classrooms until March 15, to give teachers and staff time to get vaccinations.
While educators are in the 1B group that is eligible for coronavirus vaccinations, many are finding difficulty in landing appointments. This is part of a county-wide trend of demand exceeding the vaccine supply.
Agua Fria Unified High School District is partnering with Abrazo West Campus to host an educator point of distribution (POD). âThe first vaccine event will be held Jan. 29 and 30,â said Tamee Gressett, a district administrator. âThe second vaccine event will be held Feb. 19-20.â
