Dear Students:
As Director of Facilities and Technology, it’s my job to make sure the building operations run smoothly, both on a daily basis and in the event of an emergency. This is especially important as we train in-person during the continuing pandemic. It is worth noting that we have maintained continuity of instruction through the last academic year—but this doesn’t mean we should rest easy. It’s only through our shared focus and dedication that we will see this through.
The main points of the NBSS Health & Safety Plan revolve around a few simple actions, including vaccination requirements (with approved exemptions), mandatory mask wearing, and daily screenings, among other protocols. In addition to these, we have contingency plans in place when someone becomes sick, needs to quarantine, has to work remotely, etc. We will flex and adapt as needed, as COVID-19 continues to change in the world, in Boston, and in our community.
Review the Full Health & Safety Plan
Please review the NBSS Health & Safety Plan and our Health & Safety webpage. In particular, be sure to read the FAQs on the "Health & Safety" and "Training & Education" sub-pages on the website.
Once you've familiarized yourself with the protocols, click here to acknowledge that you've read and understand them. We must have this acknowledgement from you before school begins.
