Face coverings
The board confirmed that mask wearing may be required for the start of school this fall due to the COVID-19 Delta variant, although no official decision has been made.
Board member Arlen Diercks said, âWe are aware of the masking issues, more than likely we will be needing to wear masks.â
During the discussion, a motion was made by Board Vice Chair Jim Bryant to not require masks in September, which failed 3-2 with Holly Tauer and Nicky Buck absent from the meeting.
Board members Anna Ostendorf, Jennifer Tift and Diercks agreed that more information from the districtâs COVID-19 Response Team is needed to make the final decision.
