WELCOME to the 2022-2023 School Year!
The Ocean County Health Department (OCHD) recognizes the challenges many schools face 1) identifying and implementing current guidance for schools to protect staff and students from COVID-19 and 2) delivering programs to students in a safe and effective manner. To help with these challenges, the OCHD has compiled current COVID standards, guidance and health education resources so that administrators and school staff have a one-stop shop for what they need at their fingertips.
