The California Department of Public Health has opened vaccinations for Phase 1B, Tier 1, which includes education and child care workers, as vaccination supplies allow. The Los Angeles County Department of Public Health expects vaccinations will be widely available for Phase 1B, Tier 1 by March.
Glendale Unified is working with local healthcare providers to ensure vaccines are distributed as quickly as possible to teachers and staff who want them. As opportunities for vaccination become available, the district is prioritizing employees whose current job functions require them to report to work in person and interact with children and the public putting them at higher risk for infection.
