As a potentially historic winter storm approaches New York City this weekend, Mayor Zohran Mamdani said Friday that even if schools are closed to in-person instruction, classes will continue online.
Speaking at a press briefing at the city’s Emergency Management Department on Jan. 23, Mamdani said public schools will either remain open or pivot to remote learning on Monday, with a final decision expected by noon on Sunday. A full closure without instruction, he said, is not under consideration.
