1. State Department of Public Health and the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education health metrics;
2. Positivity Rates (14-day average) below 5 percent using state, county, and relative rate of change in average;
3. Adherence to NPS expectations for health and safety measures, including mask wearing, hygiene/hand washing, and meeting standards for proper ventilation of schools and classrooms.
