RCSD Updates and Resources about COVID-19

The State’s mask mandate in schools has ended, effective Wednesday, March 2, 2022.
Students, staff, and visitors are no longer required to wear a mask in any school setting (including on yellow school buses) unless they have tested positive and are returning after 5 days of isolation. Currently, per NYS and Federal requirements, students who ride RTS are still required to wear a mask while on the bus.

The Rochester City School District continues to follow the recommendations from the Monroe County Department of Public Health (MCDPH), New York State Department of Health, and Centers for Disease Control (CDC), along with the guidelines from the New York State Education Department.
