Whether vaccinated or unvaccinated, all students are recommended to wear a mask in school when they return to in-person classes, according to new guidelines issued by the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP).
In a statement released Monday, the AAP emphasized following a layered approach when schools re-open this fall season. The pediatric group also said that the adult school staff should wear masks, regardless if they completed their vaccinations.
AAP chairman of Council on School Health Sonja O Leary said education facilities across the U.S. should make in-person learning safe and possible for everyone, thus the universal masking policy recommendation. It is a slight deviation from the policy of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), which states that children who are not fully vaccinated must wear a mask in school indoors.
