School district eases mask mandate after zero coronavirus cases at elementary schools level
Blanchard Elementary ease mask mandate for students who remain in the same cohorts.
CAPE GIRARDEAU, Mo. (WSIL) Katie Toy s daughter is a kindergartener at Blanchard Elementary, one of five elementary schools in the Cape Girardeau Public Schools District that began allowing students who remain in the same classroom to remove their masks.
Toy said with all the COVID-19 safety guidelines and precautions in place at the school, she completely trusts the district s decision. As long as they are hand washing which they are, and being safe and preventing the kids from coming in if they have a fever, things like that then, you know, then I think it s good for the kids so they can get back to some normalcy, said Toy.

Aberystwyth University in Wales has announced plans to invest £2.5 million in a 10ac solar farm as part of its ambitious bid to become carbon neutral by 2030.
The university will shortly be seeking planning permission to install solar panels at a site adjacent to its Fferm Penglais student accommodation.
Once operational, the photovoltaic (PV) solar panels will generate around one quarter of the annual electricity requirements of Penglais Campus – equivalent to the energy used by over 500 homes. In doing so, it will generate carbon savings of 550t/year.
The 10ac facility, which will be situated on land already owned by the university, will cost just under £2.5 million and will generate annual energy savings in excess of £300,000/year.
