DCPS teachers will receive vaccine 1 week before the return to in-person learning Delia Goncalves Replay Video UP NEXT DC Public School teachers will likely not be fully inoculated against COVID-19 by the time DCPS expects them to return to the classroom on Feb. 1. DCPS staff are slated to receive their first dose of the vaccine on Jan. 25. But the second dose must be administered three weeks after the first, which means educators wouldn’t get that booster until at least Feb. 8. “That's even if Jan. 25 actually happens,” Laura Fuchs, a teacher at H.D Woodson High school in Ward 7, said. “Do we have to sign up in the pool? Like the people who were 65 had to sign up and where? It took less than 24 hours and there were no more slots left for the week."
