Mask Use:

Unless the Department of Health recommends otherwise masks will be optional this year.

Hygiene/Handwashing:

Frequent handwashing is still a recommended mitigation strategy to help prevent the spread of COVID-19 and other infectious diseases.

Vaccination:

Increasing vaccination rates in our students, staff, and community is our greatest strategy in keeping students learning in-person. Vaccination is currently available to everyone 5 years of age and older and appointments are readily available at pharmacies and health centers.

Diagnostic Screening, Reporting Illnesses, and Testing:

Please stay home if you are sick.
