Local I.S. 318 has been closed until May 26th due to Swine Flu precautions.
The article doesn’t mention is anyone actually has the swine flu, just that “the teachers’ union on Friday presented education and health officials with a list of schools recommended for closing because of high numbers of absent children”.
A lot of Greenpoint kids go to I.S. 318 because it’s considered a better alternative to J.H.S. 126 so I sincerely hope none of the kids or teachers get sick. This swine flu thing has gotten out of control!
