The New York Post visited Immaculate Conception School on Gun Hill Road in the Bronx for their first day of school. “Catholic schools across the five boroughs opened on Wednesday — with the COVID-19-fighting regimens of temperature-taking and stair-rail sanitizing mixed with the age-old traditions of crisp new uniforms and first-day jitters.”
Principal Amy Rodriguez said that even the more nervous parents were happy to see all of the safety and cleaning procedures in place. Superintendent of Schools Michael J. Deegan said the Archdiocese of New York is so excited to open the schools for in-person learning.
