SBOE Member Georgina Pérez urges Gov. Abbott to prioritize vaccines for school employees

5 Jan 2021 | The current Phase 1B definition released by the Department of State Health Services does NOT include early access for teachers and school staff who do not already meet the general age and medical history criteria under Phase 1B. As we enter the most dangerous and unprecedented phase of the pandemic, it is imperative that all school employees who are required to return to campus must be provided with the opportunity to be immunized against the virus.
