After a brief hiatus, COVID-19 and mask mandates returned for discussion at the Maricopa Unified School District Governing Board meeting on Wednesday. This time, however, a policy changed indicated progress against the virus.
The board voted unanimously to accept the recommendation of Dr. Tracey Lopeman, district superintendent, to require masks indoors in its schools and buildings through the end of the school year on May 27. During that period, masks outside will be recommended, but not required.

The Maricopa Unified School District tackled two issues appropriate to the fast-approaching end of the school year at its governing board meeting Wednesday – retirement and vacations.
The district voted 5-0 to approve retaining Educational Services Inc. as its vendor for staffing placement services for both certified and classified personnel for the 2021-22 school year. This is important to many employees who may be eligible for state retirement but wish to keep working in their current position.
When district personnel want to “retire and rehire,” Arizona law requires them to work for an outside entity for one year before they can return to work for the district.
