To ensure the safety and welfare of our students and staff, we are asking anyone who travels to provide the District with information concerning travel to a restricted location, which coincides with the New York State Travel Advisory. (https://coronavirus.health.ny.gov/covid-19-travel-advisory).

All individuals coming into New York from either a non-contiguous state or US territory, or any other country, whether or not such person is a New York resident, are required to complete the traveler health form (https://forms.ny.gov/s3/Welcome-to-New-York-State-Traveler-Health-Form) upon entering New York. Significant penalties may be imposed on any individual who fails to complete the traveler health form.

Travel to New York From Other Countries
Current CDC guidance (https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/travelers/testing-international-air-travelers.html) requires air passengers traveling to the U.S. from another country show either documentation of having recovered from COVID-19 within in the previous 3 months or a negative test result from no more than 3 days prior to day of travel to the airline before boarding the flight. This applies to both U.S. residents and visitors from other countries. (Documentation of vaccination status or antibody test results will not be accepted as proof of COVID status prior to boarding, per CDC guidance.)

After arrival in the U.S., travelers must either quarantine for 7 days with a test 3-5 days after travel, or quarantine for the full 10 days without a test. This requirement applies to all international travelers whether they were tested before boarding, are recovered from a previous COVID infection, or are fully vaccinated.

Compliance with CDC guidance for international travel is required in New York State for all travelers arriving or passing through New York from other countries (e.g., connecting flights), including healthcare workers and essential workers.
