CLEVELAND (WOIO) - Cleveland Metropolitan School District (CMSD) CEO Eric Gordon released a plan Monday for getting district staff vaccinated against COVID-19.
Employees of select Ohio school districts will begin receiving vaccines the week of Feb. 1; however, neither Cleveland Schools nor any other school district in Cuyahoga County will be among the first group of districts receiving the vaccine.
Gordon said he expects the Cleveland district to start receiving the first doses of the vaccine the week of February 8th and that the entire process, including the consideration of when to bring students back to school, must be done efficiently.
