Fifth grade teacher Jeneane Salerno recently got the coronavirus vaccine. “I feel a sense of relief that I am vaccinated, and hopeful that it will stop the spread and we can all start living life again,” Mrs. Salerno said. She was out of work for three days after getting the vaccine. “The teachers, like so many others, have been having difficulty getting appointments for the vaccine. I would guess that half of the staff at Colonial have had their first dose.”
