MORE THAN 1,700 MCPS EMPLOYEES MISS DEADLINE TO REPORT VACCINATION STATUS

More than 1,700 Montgomery County Public School employees have not reported their vaccination status as of Nov. 15, and the school district is extending their already-pushed-back deadline for reporting before issuing disciplinary measures.

As of the morning of Nov. 15, 1,782 employees had yet to report their vaccination status, according to MCPS Director of Communications Chris Cram.

On Sept. 9, the Montgomery County Board of Education unanimously passed a resolution mandating that all school district staff must be vaccinated against COVID-19, with a deadline of Oct. 29 to electronically report vaccination status. In early October, the deadline was extended to the end of the day on Nov. 15. Now, employees have until 5 p.m. on Friday, Nov. 19 to report, according to Cram.

Out of the 24,588 employees of MCPS, over 22,200 (about 90%) have reported that they are fully vaccinated against COVID-19, according to Cram. Additionally, since July, MCPS has received 264 requests for religious exemptions and 197 requests for medical exemptions...
