Students and staff at Shelter Island School marked a happy milestone this week, observing the 100th day since school opened in the fall.
At that time, whether and how to reopen was the subject of careful deliberation by the superintendent and school board against the backdrop of monitoring the COVID infection rate in the region.
Dozens of parents were making the decision whether to stay on for the school year, rather than return to city homes after the summer. After being shut down since mid-March, the school was reopened in the wake of enhanced sanitation measures, social distancing and masking rules and monitoring of COVID cases.
