“The rising numbers of COVID-19 cases due to multiple
variants are cause for concern for all of us,” says Persaud. “A surge of new
cases has occurred in northeastern New Jersey, and it is expected that the
trend will continue through the holiday break,” said Superintendent of Schools
Eileen F. Shafer. “That is why I told the Paterson Health Officer of my
concerns and asked for his support of my recommendation to begin remote
learning throughout the district starting January 4th until January 18th.”
