New York City’s middle and high schools opened their doors on Thursday, completing the reopening of 1,600 schools in the first big U.S. city to bring students back during the covid pandemic

“At this point, we’re assuming we need a couple of thousand teachers … especially at the high school level,” United Federation of Teachers president Michael Mulgrew told reporters outside the University Neighborhood High School in Manhattan early Thursday morning. “We’re seeing some high schools that have very limited programs.”

“We’re now going to be making those adjustments over the next few weeks. We’ll get to a final, locked-down roster for every school and then we’ll be able to tell you what we had to add,” he said. The city says that students whose parents don’t sign a consent form for testing may be prohibited from attending in person.
