Mask Up

Mask Up

Students have done a terrific job of coming to school with a mask.  A mask helps prevent a person who is sick from spreading the virus to others. Appropriate and consistent use of masks is most important when students, teachers, and staff are indoors and when social distancing is difficult to implement or maintain.   If we can all wear masks consistently and correctly, then we could reduce not only the spread of illness but also reduce the number of individuals who may need to quarantine.  

Now more than ever, it is important that we reiterate the proper way to wear the mask.  Please make sure your child has the proper sized mask; the mask should fit snugly and cover the bridge of the nose and stretch under the chin.  The mask should stay in place and not fall off of the nose.  Many students are wearing the same mask each day and the mask are stretching out and not fitting properly.   We must continue to mitigate the spread of COVID-19 by doing our part and properly wearing a mask.
