Governor Issues Mask Mandate August 4 2021

Lighthouse 112

Governor JB Pritzker announced an Executive Order today that supports safe in-person learning and requires that masks be worn indoors by all teachers, staff, students, and visitors to K-12 schools, regardless of vaccination status. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention strengthened its guidance last week for universal indoor masking in schools, and Illinois will continue to follow the science, data, and public health experts to keep students in school and keep communities safe. We know that consistent and correct mask use is the simplest, most effective way to keep students safely in school, where they can learn and grow to their fullest potential. In District 112 we're going to recommend that we follow the Governor's order and we open schools in accordance with his order. Next week we will share more details about other COVID-19 protocols as we prepare to open our 10 schools for full-time in-person learning. Inspire -- Innovate -- Engage!
