          • Equity of Technology: We address this topic in our Stakeholder Guide (links below) under “Technology & Connectivity.” In short, 100% of ECS scholars will be provided an ECS chromebook. In addition, any scholars that have connectivity challenges will be provided with a HotSpot.
          • COVID-19 Testing for Scholars and Staff/Teachers: Equality will follow applicable requirements set forth by the NYS Department of Health and local departments of health, and CDC regarding any required testing if a student or staff member exhibits symptoms of COVID-19.  Staff members may be required to provide evidence of a negative COVID-19 test prior to the first day of in-school instruction, as permitted by applicable law.
          • Contact Tracing: Equality will work with the NYS Department of Health and local department of health centers to alert them when a student or staff member tests positive for COVID-19.  Equality will follow protocols as set forth at NYS Contact Tracing.  Equality commits to maintaining accurate student and staff records (including updated contact information) to assist with any necessary contact tracing.
