BUFFALO, N.Y. (WKBW) â Parents and caregivers had questions for the Buffalo Public School district, before many of their children go back into the classroom.
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.
