Masking to continue through summer at USD 383; some other measures to be relaxed
As the school year draws to a close at USD 383 Manhattan/Ogden Schools, some pandemic mitigation efforts are being relaxed, while some will remain in place.
In a letter to parents and staff Thursday, Superintendent Dr. Marvin Wade thanked everyone for committing to mitigation efforts throughout the school year. The district got through a semester of hybrid learning in the first semester and transitioned to on-site learning the second semester.
But with new cases still occurring and because children and youth are not yet vaccinated, USD 383 will continue to comply with CDC guidelines. Wade says current mitigation measures will remain in place through the summer, including masking, social distancing and frequent handwashing.
