State superintendent supports school reopening guidelines December 18, 2020 at 6:30 am
Reykdal says since children are less likely to get coronavirus or shed the virus, they are generally less of a risk.
But he says if kids do get the virus, they can spread it just like adults.
The superintendent says strict safety guidelines are the key to keeping school environments as safe as possible.
Reykdal says younger children are proving more likely to follow coronavirus rules, which is one of the reasons they should come back first. Those rules include wearing masks at all times, maintaining six feet of physical distance whenever possible, improved ventilation, and increased cleaning.
