Harmony extends expired federal COVID-19 benefits for all employees
On the first school day after important federal workplace safeguards expired for millions of Americans, Harmony Public Schools’ Executive Board voted to independently provide the much-needed benefits to its 4,000+ employees.
The benefits previously were part of the Families First Coronavirus Response Act (FFCRA), a federal program which provided American workers a number of workplace safeguards related to COVID-19. Primarily, the benefits included up to 10 Emergency Paid Sick Leave (EPSL) days if an employee was unable to work due to COVID-19 diagnosis, symptoms, possible exposure, or required quarantine for themselves, a family member, or child care provider.
Those federal benefits expired December 31, 2020. However, The Harmony Public Schools’ Executive Board voted at an emergency meeting Monday night, January 4, to independently extend the same benefits to employees throughout the remainder of the 2020-21 school year.
“The Harmony board felt this action was not only an important thing to do, but the right thing to do for our staff and their families,” Harmony CEO Fatih Ay said in a letter to employees Tuesday. “By offering these benefits, our team members can know that their jobs and livelihoods will not be impacted if they need to seek treatment for COVID-19 or stay home with possible symptoms. Additionally, our student families also can know that Harmony is doing all it can to take care of the team members who take care of their students, and reduce potential COVID-19 exposure on campus.”
On the first school day after important federal workplace safeguards expired for millions of Americans, Harmony Public Schools’ Executive Board voted to independently provide the much-needed benefits to its 4,000+ employees.
Harmony Public Schools is a Texas-born, Texas-wide public charter school system with campuses serving PreK-12 students in 23 cities across the state, including Greater Houston, DFW, San Antonio, Austin, El Paso, Waco, Lubbock, Odessa, Bryan, Beaumont, and the Rio Grande Valley.

Remote-Only Learning Extended
10/12/2020
Dear Harmony Parents and Guardians,
At Harmony Public Schools, providing our students and staff a safe and academically-focused learning environment is our highest priority.
As you are likely aware, COVID-19 continues to remain a strong and steady presence in our El Paso community. Earlier today, the City of El Paso announced that the number of active cases in our city has reached an all-time high following a steady upward trend throughout last week. Therefore, due to the recent surge in COVID-19 cases in El Paso, and based upon recommendations from the City of El Paso Department of Public Health, we have requested a waiver from the Texas Education Agency (TEA) allowing an extension of remote-only learning until Wednesday, October 28th, with a phased in return to campus. Therefore, campuses will not fully re-open on Tuesday, October 13th as previously stated.
The phase-in plan to allow students to safely return to campus is listed below. Please note: campuses will inform parents regarding which grade levels will be allowed to return in each phase.
October 28– 25% of students that selected In-Person Learning will return to campus
November 2– 50% of students that selected In-Person Learning will return to campus
November 4– 75% of students that selected In-Person Learning will return to campus
November 6– 100% of students that selected In-Person Learning will return to campus
While our campuses won’t be fully re-opened until this date, we still have limited availability at each of our four campus learning centers. As a reminder, the learning centers, are a supervised “study hall” like setting where students complete their daily classwork remotely from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. If interested, please contact your campus for learning center availability.
Thank you for your continued support during these unprecedented times, and for helping keep our students safe and focused on learning. We will continue to keep you updated as new developments take place.
Sincerely,
Harmony Public Schools – El Paso

Estimados padres y tutores de Harmony:
En las Escuelas Públicas de Harmony, nuestra máxima prioridad es proporcionar a nuestros estudiantes y personal un entorno de aprendizaje seguro y centrado en lo académico.
Como probablemente sepa, COVID-19 continúa siendo una presencia fuerte y constante en nuestra comunidad de El Paso. Hoy temprano, la Ciudad de El Paso anunció que el número de casos activos en nuestra ciudad ha alcanzado un máximo histórico siguiendo una tendencia ascendente constante durante la semana pasada. Por lo tanto, debido al reciente aumento de casos de COVID-19 en El Paso, y según las recomendaciones del Departamento de Salud Pública de la Ciudad de El Paso, hemos solicitado una exención de la Agencia de Educación de Texas (TEA) que permite una extensión de solo aprendizaje hasta el miércoles 28 de octubre, con un regreso gradual al campus. Por lo tanto, los campus no volverán a abrir completamente el martes 13 de octubre como se indicó anteriormente.
El plan de incorporación para permitir que los estudiantes regresen con seguridad al campus se enumera a continuación. Tenga en cuenta: los campus informarán a los padres sobre qué niveles de grado se les permitirá regresar en cada fase.
28 de octubre: el 25% de los estudiantes que seleccionaron el aprendizaje en persona regresarán al campus
2 de noviembre El 50% de los estudiantes que seleccionaron el aprendizaje en persona regresarán al campus
4 de noviembre, el 75% de los estudiantes que seleccionaron el aprendizaje en persona regresarán al campus
6 de noviembre El 100% de los estudiantes que seleccionaron el aprendizaje en persona regresarán al campus
Si bien nuestros campus no se reabrirán por completo hasta esta fecha, todavía tenemos disponibilidad limitada en cada uno de nuestros cuatro centros de aprendizaje del campus. Como recordatorio, los centros de aprendizaje son un entorno supervisado como una “sala de estudio” donde los estudiantes completan su trabajo diario de clase de forma remota de 8 a.m. a 3 p.m. Si está interesado, comuníquese con su campus para conocer la disponibilidad del centro de aprendizaje.
Gracias por su continuo apoyo durante estos tiempos sin precedentes y por ayudar a mantener a nuestros estudiantes seguros y enfocados en el aprendizaje. Continuaremos manteniéndolo actualizado a medida que se produzcan nuevos desarrollos.
Sinceramente,
Escuelas Públicas Harmony – El Paso
