Mayor Mamdani announced New York City’s public schools will reopen Tuesday, even as a blizzard continued dumping snow throughout the region.
“School will be in person tomorrow,” Mamdani said at a press conference Monday. “You can still pelt me with snow balls when you see me.”
Public school families had seen their midwinter break extended unexpectedly due to the blizzard. While many kids cheered the return to a traditional snow day Monday without remote learning, many parents said they were ready to send the kids back to school.
