On Monday, grades Pre-K-2, high school seniors, and those with the highest needs can return to buildings. Superintendent Dr. Kriner Cash called it a "milestone" day. A common question parents had was regarding COVID-19 testing. Cash said it will continue despite the lifting of Erie County's cluster zone. Testing is not required for schools outside orange and red cluster zones, according to the state's website.
