Herkimer-Fulton-Hamilton-Otsego BOCES recently presented the Herkimer County Public Health Department with the Herkimer BOCES 2021 Community Partnership Award for cooperation with local schools through the COVID-19 pandemic.
Herkimer BOCES District Superintendent Sandra Sherwood gave the award to Herkimer County Public Health Department Director Christina Cain and her team in person and officially announced the award during the virtual Herkimer BOCES Annual Meeting held April 1.
“Ever since last March, you and your team have stood shoulder-to-shoulder with BOCES and all the schools in our region to mitigate the effects and spread of COVID-19,” Sherwood said. “I appreciate all the phone conversations around protocols and that you reach out to all the schools whenever you are needed – nights, weekends, holidays – when the community needs you, you are there.”
