Let’s Celebrate
What: Dr. Seuss’s Birthday
Who: Pre-k -6th grades
When: Wednesday March 2, 2022
How: Come dressed in your best Dr. Seuss attire
Maybe you want to be a Grinch, or maybe your socks don’t match because you got dressed in a pinch. Maybe you feel a little wacky and your hair is all tacky. No one will gripe if you decide to wear stripes. Socks on your hands like Fox in Socks will make the day rock!

Dear Downsville Central School District community,
As you may have heard, the New York State Department of Public Service is mapping broadband infrastructure across the state, and they need to hear from our community. The survey takes 5-7 minutes to complete and will assist the agency in more accurately reporting on where broadband infrastructure exists and where it does not. Please visit www.delawarecountybroadband.com or scan the QR code in the attached flier by Friday, March 18th, 2022, to take the survey digitally or call the toll-free broadband assessment line at 1-855-NYBBMAP (1-855-692-2627) to receive a paper copy in the mail.
The need for fast, reliable broadband internet has never been greater in our rural school district, as made all too apparent during the pandemic. Students rely on broadband to attend remote classes and complete and submit schoolwork and families rely on it to stay up to date on school communications. In today’s world, broadband internet is a necessity.
Data collected from the broadband assessment will be used by Delaware County Economic Development and our county government to demonstrate our county’s need and eligibility for state and federal grants. While other broadband surveys have been conducted previously by other agencies, they were not through the Department of Public Service and were not as thorough nor complete as this assessment.
We encourage our school district families to complete the assessment and help get Delaware County mapped.
Thank You

Dear DCS School Community:
The purpose of this message is to update you on the mask wearing rule as there has been a recent court decision in the Nassau County Supreme Court that has ruled that the New York State Department of Health exceeded its authority in enacting the mask regulation. Long story short, per the New York State Education Department, schools must continue to follow the mask rule. We understand from the State Education Department that the State of New York shall seek an appeal of the decision and seek a stay regarding the enforcement of the same. As a result, the State Education Department has stated that schools are required to continue to mandate the use of masks pending the final outcome of the litigation. Accordingly, the Downsville Central School District shall continue to require all students and staff to wear masks for the health and safety of our community and in accordance with the recommendation of the New York State Department and County Departments of Health and the Centers for Disease Control. We will continue to work with legal counsel to ascertain the implications of this litigation and any appeals for our District. I will continue to update you as new information is available.
Respectfully,
John
