BFSRA had a General Zoom Meeting on Monday, January 25, 2021 from 10-12. The superintendents (KSD, PSD, RSD) 'zoomed in' at 10:15. Alan Burke acted as our moderator, and members were able to ask questions after each superintendent's presentations and then again at the end. Statistics on attendance, general notes on the meeting itself, and a link to the recorded meeting will be posted here as soon as they are available. Members were able to participate either online, or via telephone.

COVID-19 VACCINATIONS
Tier 1, Phase 1B COVID-19 vaccinations started to become available to those 65 and older in January. The mass vaccination site at the Benton-Franklin Fairgrounds opened January 25. While it may be possible to schedule a vaccination with one's healthcare provider, the two primary ways of doing so are online at https://prepmod.doh.wa.gov/ or by phone (1-800-525-0127). WSSRA is tracking the statewide effort; its summaries can be found on the Current News and Projects tab (https://wssra.org/index.php/newsupdates)
