- Masks will still be available and provided for anyone who would like to continue to wear one.
- For our younger students’ parents/guardians – if you wish for your child to still wear a mask while in the school setting, please send your child’s homeroom teacher an email indicating so. We will do our best to ensure your child is wearing a mask.
