Schools have closed for deep cleaning, and some colleges and universities are shuttering and moving classes online to avoid bringing large groups of students together. The order affected a half-dozen public schools — three in New Rochelle and three in the neighboring Tuckahoe Union Free District. Six private schools are also affected: three inside the containment zone and three Jewish schools outside it. ADCuomo said the initial plan was to shut down the whole district, but officials decided just to close schools within the one-mile radius. Arminio’s son’s elementary school closed Tuesday for the next two weeks.
