“Mayor Bowser also announced that Safe Return operations at DC Public Schools (DCPS) will shift one day. Schools will be closed on Monday, January 3. DCPS staff should report their COVID-19 test results before 1:00 p.m. on Tuesday, January 4. DCPS students must now test on Wednesday, January 5. Families can pick up their rapid antigen test on Tuesday, January 4 between 1:00 p.m. and 4:00 p.m. or on Wednesday between 8:30 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. Schools are scheduled to re-open on Thursday, January 6.
District Government will operate in a telework posture for non-essential/non-emergency employees. Essential employees will report for duty as previously scheduled, unless otherwise directed. All in-person programming at DC Government agencies will be closed. Virtual appointments and online services will continue unless otherwise stated.
Test Yourself DC at-home PCR tests and Test Yourself Express rapid tests will be available for pick-up on Monday, January 3 from 2:30 p.m. – 7:30 p.m. (or until supplies run out) at four firehouses:
Engine 4 at 2531 Sherman Ave NW

Engine 33 is located at 101 Atlantic St SE
All other testing sites will be closed. Residents will still be able to drop off Test Yourself DC tests at drop boxes at libraries and recreation centers before 8:00 p.m. Engines 4, 8, 31, and 33 will also accept Test Yourself DC drop-offs on January 3 during the hours listed above.
Meal distribution sites at DCPS and Department of Parks and Recreation (DPR) facilities will be closed.
Trash, recycling, and Christmas tree collections will “slide” to the next day for the remainder of the week into Saturday. For example, households that normally receive trash/recycling collections on Monday will be serviced Tuesday.
While the snow emergency is in effect, motorists may not park on snow emergency routes and vehicles parked on these routes may be towed. Read More

There will be rounds two, three and who knows how many – send your snow dogs (cats, rabbits, who knows) throughout the day to [email protected] and let me know neighborhood you are in.
More snow dogs! Read More
