Gov. Cuomo gave the green light to reopen every New York state school district this fall — if they first earn passing grades from the state Health and Education departments.
“We are probably in the best situation in the country right now,” Cuomo said in a Friday conference call with reporters. “If anybody can open schools, we can open schools and that’s true for every region in the state.”
The gubernatorial go-ahead still requires approval of each district’s specific plans from state Health and Education officials before students return to class for the first time since schools were mandated by executive order to close by March 18. The other caveat for the September openings, a positive coronavirus test rate below 5% in their region, was met statewide as of Friday.

A MAJOR CAVE TO TRUMP, AND A MAJOR BLOW TO THE TEACHERS’ UNION, WHICH HAS WILDLY OVERPLAYED ITS HAND: Andrew Cuomo says New York schools will open in the fall.
The Democrats’ internal polls on keeping schools closed must be awful, too.
So now democrats are suddenly not behaving like communist nut jobs, and really speaking out against their own evils…
