Due to significant staff shortages resulting from positive cases of Covid-19 and quarantining protocols, New Hyde Park Memorial High School and Sewanhaka High School will continue remote learning for Wednesday, January 5, 2022.
Elmont Memorial High School, Floral Park Memorial High School, and H. Frank Carey High School are all open as normal.
All CTE students will attend classes remotely on Wednesday, January 5, 2022. CTE students from the three open schools should report to and will remain at their home schools.
Dear Sewanhaka Central District Families,
We have received our allotment of COVID-19 home test kits from New York State. The State has provided one CareStart COVID-19 Antigen Home Test with two test kits for each student in grades 7-12. According to the state, the expiration date of these rapid tests is January 31, 2022. However, the FDA has approved a 90-day extension of tests, and rapid tests that normally would have expired on January 31st can be used until the end of April.
The distribution of the test kits will be on Tuesday, January 4, 2022, from 3:30 PM to 6 PM. We ask that you come to your home school and report to the area listed below. You will be required to show ID upon arrival.
You will receive a home test for each child enrolled in our schools. Home tests for elementary school aged children will be distributed by your elementary school district.
Elmont Memorial - Large parking lot
Floral Park Memorial - Large parking lot
H. Frank Carey - enter at Goldenrod Avenue
New Hyde Park Memorial - large parking lot
Sewanhaka High School - main parking lot
Please note that these test kits are being provided as a resource only. There is no requirement to test, and these home kits cannot be used for clearance should your child be symptomatic or exposed.
Should you choose to use the home kit and your child tests positive, contact Perrotta Consulting at covid19@sewanhakaschools.org and/or 516-488-9891 to report the positive test.
Thank you for your cooperation and partnership.
Respectfully,
Dr. Grossane
