Wentzell today announced that they are sending guidance to every school superintendent in the state outlining suggested protocols to ensure that any student arriving from Puerto Rico, or any affected storm area, has immediate access to school and expedited connections to the services they may need. In the days since Hurricane Irma and Hurricane Maria brought devastation to the island, the administration has received a number of inquiries from superintendents and other school officials requesting information on how to supervise this potential situation.
“When tragedy strikes, it is often our children who are most at risk,” Governor Malloy said. “We anticipate many families affected by the disaster in Puerto Rico may seek refuge in our state.
