Use of face coverings for STUDENTS and STAFF will be optional during the following activities:

Please note that face coverings are still required for all community members during pick up, drop off, and during class transition times when students may be walking outside. Also, face coverings will continue to be required inside campus buildings until further notice.

  • Fit snugly but comfortably against the wide of the face and under the chin.
