August 2021

While school districts will likely continue in-person learning this Fall, many school districts and private schools may mandate masks for both staff and students. As of Tuesday, July 27, 2021, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control (CDC) updated its Guidance for K-12 schools across the country. The CDC now recommends all staff, teachers and students, as well as school visitors, wear a mask in K-12 schools, regardless of vaccination status.

This new Guidance reverses recommendations from the CDC released in early July, which allowed those who are vaccinated in schools to refrain from wearing a mask indoors. Unfortunately, COVID-19 cases have increased since the CDC published its initial recommendations for schools, due the highly contagious Delta variant. The 7-day moving average of cases is at approximately 42,000 as of July 25, 2021, according to the CDC, up from about 13,000 in June 2021. The CDC continues to recommend that children should return to full-time, in-person learning in the Fall with proper prevention strategies.
