ST. CLAIRSVILLE Ohio school employees are set to begin receiving COVID-19 vaccines next week, but no local school districts are among the first group to get the shots.
Gov. Mike DeWine intends to make the shots available to school staff through February with the goal of resuming full-time in-person schooling in March.
Belmont County Deputy Health Director Robert Sproul addressed this during his Wednesday report to the Belmont County Board of Commissioners. Sproul said the state released names of the first school districts to receive vaccinations next week. However, no school districts in Belmont, Harrison, Jefferson or Monroe counties are on the list.
